Tiny Ruins - Cat In The Hallway Lyrics
Little past two; couldn’t sleep again.Put on my yellow flannel gown,Wandered down past allThe funny night sounds.Met the grey cat in the hallway,And you, standing by the mirror,And I was holding the cat in the hallway,Shivering in the mirror,Talking about the cat, being in the hallway;And I felt like death warmed up,Only slightly, from all the yellow…But I didn’t want to leave the catAnd all in the hallway,And I didn’t want to lose the catAnd all in the hallway -But what more could we say?So I put him down, and backed upTo all the lonely night sounds.(For me, it’s not over breakfast,but in the hallway.)
