lyrics

Too many people I’m calling my dear
Too many people I’m calling darling
oo

Too many mornings I’ve woken up here
With too many people I’ve promised the stars and moon
oo

I think I’ve spent too long just a-battin my eyelids,
Greasing up the teeth on my favorite vises,
Sinking hooks down in the blackest of seas,
When all I’m looking for is someone who ain’t looking for me.

Too many campers in too many canyons
Too many fires that I’ve lit and abandoned
oo

Too many cooks in too many kitchens
Too many spices are gonna spoil the stew
oo

I think I’ve spent too long just a-battin my eyelids,
Greasing up the teeth on my favorite vises,
Sinking hooks down in the blackest of seas,
When all I’m looking for is someone who ain’t looking for me.

And if I had a lick of sense,
Given all of these events,
I would swim right out to sea.
But my ships have started sinking,
And I guess it’s got me thinking
That perhaps this town has had a little much of me.

Too many eggs in too many baskets
Too many ports I’m only passing through.
And one day I’ll wake up with too many mem’ries
Of too many people and no-one to tell them to.
oo
