Babysitter

My evening stands apart from time
I’ve got to fill it with my thoughts, and some cheap red wine
I’ve brought a pen and spiral pad
In case the TV turns out to be really bad
The baby's calling me again -
But this time it might mean something special...

The ceiling pattern hypnotized
With perfect tessalation, and a spider that i spied
Their videos are mostly poor
I've looked through personal effects in drawer after drawer
My phone is buzzing once again
I really hope this is someone special...

There's a million things i'd rather do
Driving north, being close to you
But it's never going to happen
So i find myself distracted and very tired
I like to sleep, but i might get fired
So i sit here thinking about us
And whether i've
Encouraged you more than i should have done
In 3 years time, you might be the one
These thoughts aren't really helping
