For Gidge. Happy Valentine's Day.

Just in case you're lonely down there, 

And in case you're feeling down. 

There's still someone thinking of you, 

Back in this here ol' town. 

We're still going through our motions. 

And we're still up until the sun comes round. 

And we still a LITTLE crazy, 

Back here is this ol' town. 

And the sirens are still wailin' 

An urgent howlin' sound 

And some here still misses you 

Back here in this ol' town. 

And my spheres are still in commotion 

Though the ice looks just like the ground 

I'm still freezing here beneath it 

Back in this here ol' town. 

But it's ok, cuz I'm still breathin' 

And waitin' back in this here ol' town.
