Daniel Romano - Missing Wind lyrics

I kept the little French girl tucked behind my eyelids. Three times to the hour 'till her gla** reached the bottom. And come around the time that she turned around the corner. I kept the little French girl tucked behind my eyelids. Three times to the hour 'till her gla** reached the bottom. And come around the time that she turned around the corner. The days till I get gone became twice as long. Oh she's something line a whisper Through the Friday evening noise. Though we never got to talking And though I never heard her voice I know that melody she's singing. I hear it in the missing wind. It leaves me standing in the emptiness Of something that never did begin. I left that dirty bedroom stained into my day clothes. One time from my own love and one time from another. And come the shadow morning I called upon my old friends. They rearranged their faces and payed out at the counter. Oh it was something like a whisper Through the Friday evening noise. Though we should have got to talking And though I should have used my voice. There's that melody we're singing. I miss it in the leper wind. It leaves me standing in the emptiness of something That never should begin
