Lyrics
This circus is falling down on its knees,
The big top is crumbling down,
It's raining in Baltimore fifteen miles east,
Where you should be, no one's around.
I need a phone call,
I need a raincoat,
I need a big love,
I need a phone call.
These train conversations are passing me by,
And I don't have nothing to say,
You get what you pay for,
But I just had no intention of living this way.
I need a phone call,
I need a plane ride,
I need a sunburn,
I need a raincoat.
And I get no answers,
And I don't get no change,
It's raining in Baltimore, baby,
But everything else is the same.
There's things I remember, things I forget,
I miss you, I guess that I should,
Three thousand five hundred miles away,
But what would you change if you could?
I need a phone call,
Maybe I should buy a new car,
I can always hear a freight train,
Baby if I listen real hard,
And I wish, I wish it was a small world,
'Cause I'm lonely for the big towns,
I'd like to hear a little guitar,
I guess it's time to put the top down.
I need a phone call,
I need a raincoat,
I really need a raincoat,
I really, really need a raincoat,
I really, really, really need a raincoat,
I really need a raincoat.
