[Verse 1: Ricky Dana]
I've wandered in deserts
Just wanting some pleasure
But all I find is pain
Confiscating all these times
That we had together
Could we last forever
What am I saying
We had good times
Only good times oh, I swear

[Pre-Chorus: Ricky Dana]
Why is this happening time after time?
Placing my heart on a feather bed shrine
Only to realize it's harder to breathe
Wipe up the dirt put it back on my sleeve

[Chorus: Wyn Barnum, Wyn Barnum & Ricky Dana]
Call me up when I'm drunk and you're lonely
All the time, I don't mind
Staying up through the night cause I hate when
I open my eyes and you're gone
And you're gone
Gone, gone, gone
Gone, gone, gone
[Verse 2: Ricky Dana]
This heat is relentless
These white picket fences
Painted all the same
Picture frames personified
Remodeling houses
Wake up with their spouses
If we never doubted
Then maybe, oh just maybe you would

[Chorus: Wyn Barnum, Wyn Barnum & Ricky Dana]
Call me up when I'm drunk and you're lonely
All the time, I don't mind
Staying up through the night cause I hate when
I open my eyes and you're gone
And you're gone
Gone, gone, gone
Gone, gone, gone
