I lost my telephone The one with your voice inside it And now I'm all shook up because I can't call to say, "what's up" I lost my telephone I lose everything I own Forget everything I own I lost my goddamn telephone I forgot your birthday baby I hope you forgive me it's just lately I don't know where my mind is I think I left it out by the shed With my telephone I lost everything I own Forget everything I know I lost my goddamn telephone I misplaced a photograph The one with your face inside it And now I'm missing you bad That was the only picture I had I lost my telephone I lose everything I own Forget everything I know I lost my goddamn telephone There's something about me baby It's real messed up when I can't remember what I ate for lunch I swear that I'm 'aint crazy I'm just a quirky kid I think it runs in my family This time it's the last straw I think I went and lost my drawers They were there last time I checked But now I'm naked and upset And I lost my telephone I lose everything I own Forget Everything I own I lost my goddamn telephone

I let my finger say what they want I've got no control I want no control I disconnected my head from my heart Don't know no love songs I can't sing you none I'm like a blind man lost in the dark I can talk that talk, but i'm a docile dog a heart There's no rope I can hold or let go Just a stone I roll But I've got no control Control, control, control... Loving is easy when you're dumb as a doornail I want to sing to you like a violin I've got no control I want no control I'm like a flash in a pan in the dark I've got no control I want no control Control, control, control... Loving is easy when you're dumb as doornail I want to move like the melody halftime I've got no control I want no control There's no rope I can hold or let go Just a stone I roll But I've got no control I got no control I got no control Give me no control I want no control I want no control Give me no control Loving is easy when your dumb as a doornail

Really babe I don't miss you all the time It's just those moments when I'm awake I don't miss you when I'm sleeping 'Cause I see you clear as day I dream of you all dressed in blue At Peaks Island, Casco Bay We are old folks but we got young love and your dress moves like the waves It's a long road, it's a long road There's a high moon, better take hold Sometimes I wish I could drink from a dish Just be a feral cat walking the line See them boys throwing stones at your window They know nothing about their crimes It's a long road baby there's a high moon ahead So I go lightly where I tread Tip-toe to your ally window Take the back roads to your bed It's a long road, it's a long road There's a high moon, better take hold

Oh when the storm came You were caught in the hard rain But you weathered it through That road can be rough man You 'aint one for luck man But do you got soul I want you to know that I love ya kid You've got so much soul That kid's got so much soul You don't buy no crimes But you pay the cost That match was fixed For you to take the fall Some men die young Just to curse the world Other kids got grit They're gonna ride that storm I just want you to know that I love ya kid You've got so much soul That kid's got so much soul I just want you to know that I admire ya kid You've got so much soul Oh what a weak design that I felt in the back of my mind I was free just to do as I please But courage is a hard to find especially in the dark of your mind But when you're free you can do as you please YEAH!
