Neon Skyline-Andy Shauf

[00:08.187] I called up Charlie about a quarter past nine and said, “What’s going on tonight?” [00:16.195] He said, “No plans, but I wouldn’t mind holding a lighter head tonight” [00:22.996] I said, “Come to the Skyline, I’ll be washing my sins away” [00:29.910] Oh, he just laughed, said, “I’ll be late, you know how I can be” [00:42.920] I looked in my fridge, it was a dark scene so I buttered some bread [00:50.783] Chewed my way out the door and walked down the street [00:58.211] To the neon Skyline, I grabbed myself a stool at the bar [01:04.549] Oh, somehow Rose always knows just exactly what I need [01:17.669] She didn’t ask, she just opened a cold can and set it down in front of me [01:25.263] I said thanks and thought about how Judy used to come here with me [01:32.808] But I got so tired of her calling this our disease [01:39.250] ‘Cause I’m just fine [01:42.766] Sometimes I need to clear my mind, you know how that can be [02:26.327] Charlie walked in about a quarter past ten and I said, “Greetings, old man” [02:34.367] He hung his coat on the wall and took the stool next to mine [02:41.754] He asked Rose for one glass of merlot and she laughed [02:47.985] Oh, I’m just fine, I’m wasting time, sometimes there’s no better feeling than that
