Nueva Inglaterra

New England
Remove those coffee cups
Clean those stains from the tablecloth
Make it seem like no one's been here since yesterday
Let the door be sealed to the wall
If she calls, tell her I went northeast to compose
I only packed a couple of feathers and paper
Mm-mmh, and if she's okay with it, we'll talk later
We'll talk later
Turn off the air conditioning even if it's hot
Cover the windows so the sun doesn't come in
Let my scent fade away
Make it seem like a colorless life
If she asks why I left without saying goodbye
Tell her she knows the reason
Mm-mmh, and tell her to pay attention when her heart beats
When her heart beats
Pay the rent
First day of every month
Take the phone off the hook
And change the station
Make it seem like no one is inside
Let the 12 blink on the clock
Create a sad feeling
I thank you infinitely for this favor
If she asks, tell her I've gone to my happy place
Where autumn always changes its hue
Mmh-oh, and a scar will form with time alone, here
With time alone, here
And it's not a root change, no, oh-oh
And the scar will form when the world comes to an end, oh-oh
Mmm-mmm-mhh
