I was just thinking that I have been missing you for way too long
There's something inside this weary head that wants us to love just instead
But I was just thinking, merely thinking

I've got loads of pictures, I've got the one of you in that dancing dress
But man I feel silly in that dim light just after doing you by the sight of
My Kodak delights I am sinking, merely sinking

I think about long distance rates instead of kissing you babe
I'm a singer without a song
If I wait for you longer my affection is stronger
I, I was just thinking, merely thinking
This boat is sinking

I'm tired of postcards, especially the ones with cute dogs and cupids
I'm tired of calling you, missing you, dreaming I've slept with you
Don't get me wrong I still desperately love you
Inside this weary head I just want us to love just instead
But I was just thinking and thinking, merely thinking

I think about long distance rates instead of kissing you babe
And time [bad word] me still
If I wait for you longer my affection is stronger
I was just thinking - I was just thinking
That I'm tired of calling you once a week
And thinking of long distance rates instead of kissing you

Baby I'm sinking, merely sinking
