I drove across three states and I bought a postcard for a quarter
From an antique store beside a bar I was playing at Fort Wayne, Indiana
I scribbled down some words than you already knew
As if I wrote them down and I put a stamp on it
It would make it more true
Day after day after day
I’ve watched the world take so many things
But it won’t steal our charm
Come here now darling, fill these empty arms
You wake up to the sound of an alarm in a town where everyone knows your name
And wish away the hours of the work week till it isn’t in your way
You call me on the telephone and tell me what I already know
How lucky we both are to have each other between the highs and lows
The lows
Day after day after day
I’ve watched the world take so many things
But it won’t steal our charm
Come here now darling, fill these empty arms
Day after day after day
I’ve watched the world take so many things
But it won’t steal our charm
Come here now darling, fill these empty arms
