Pedestal Lyrics - The Softies

driving the same road not much to see 

going toward weather more suited to me 

ending this whole thing by waving my hand 

I hope that you don't forget what we planned 

for years down the road 

when we both grow old 

but we don't have time for that now 

so you stay here and I'll go on 

but I'm leaving this pedestal empty to put you upon 

dates and persimmons are filling the room 

not leaving space for my sorrow and gloom 

I'm glad you're not here so don't try to be 

I like you just how you are around me 

even though I don't have much time 

we don't have to finish this now 

so you stay here and I'll go on 

but I'll think about us playing house everyday 

that I'm gone
