Bruce Cockburn - Life Short Call Now Lyrics
Billboards promise paradise
And tattoos "done while you wait"
Possible futures all laid out
On the sweeping curve of the interstate
Got no lover, got no wife
How many ways to say goodbye
Can one man fit in a nomad life?
Life short, call now
Lone car waves, then it wanes
Leaves only voices in the hall
And in the room next door to mine
The bed is banging on the wall
You've no idea how I long
For even one loving caress
For you to step into my heart
Without deception or duress
Life short, call now
