lyrics

Fast asleep in Cedar Falls
Chalk hearts in the driveway
Mash notes in the mailbox
Sounds like a mouse behind the wall
And part of you hopes that
He won't get caught

I know you're never going to come back
So don't feel like you have to explain
Spare us all the sensitive act
So sad and vain
The favorite son of Connecticut Lane

Floating crushes in your wake
You can't turn off a magnet
And why would you want to
You play action pass and sell the fake
Then drift in the eddy
Of the applause

I know you're never going to come back
So don't feel like you have to explain
Spare us all the sensitive act
So sad and vain

Under an avalanche
of poorly dubbed cassettes
Regrets
I had to mislead you
Love songs with
classical guitar and castanets
Regrets
But part of me needs you
So sad and vain
With my sleepy eyes and my legerdemain

Piss drunk in an empty hotel bar
There has to be someone
who'd like to meet you
Someone to remind you who you are
Someone with a soft place
To break your fall

I know you're never going to come back
So don't feel like you have to explain
Spare us all the sensitive act
So sad and vain
The favorite son of Connecticut Lane
