Objects in the Mirror by Nick Sherry Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Left the dusty pictures on the wall
Left the back porch light on and my kidney in the hall
No one should depend on me to care
I’d rather take the made-up elevator than the stairs
[Pre-Chorus]
I said goodbye to winter time and radio shows
I cut the queue and terrorized the old folks home
[Chorus]
Waiting for the telephone
Pacing in the dark
Playing through an old song for a sentimental heart
But I can’t get back to the start
[Verse 2]
My heels are beating patterns in the ground
They don’t know where to go without having you around
Cannon fire’s ringing in my ears
Objects in the mirror closer than they may appear
[Pre-Chorus]
I said goodbye to winter time and radio shows
I cut the queue and terrorized the old folks home
[Chorus]
Waiting for the telephone
Pacing in the dark
Playing through an old song for a sentimental heart
But I can’t get back to the start
[Wurlitzer Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
I said goodbye to winter time and radio shows
I cut the queue and terrorized the old folks home oh oh
Oh oh
[Extended Chorus]
Waiting for the telephone
Pacing in the dark
Playing through an old song for a sentimental heart
But I can’t get back to the start
No, I can’t get back to the start
No, I can’t get back to the start
Left the dusty pictures on the wall
Left the back porch light on and my kidney in the hall
No one should depend on me to care
I’d rather take the made-up elevator than the stairs
[Pre-Chorus]
I said goodbye to winter time and radio shows
I cut the queue and terrorized the old folks home
[Chorus]
Waiting for the telephone
Pacing in the dark
Playing through an old song for a sentimental heart
But I can’t get back to the start
[Verse 2]
My heels are beating patterns in the ground
They don’t know where to go without having you around
Cannon fire’s ringing in my ears
Objects in the mirror closer than they may appear
[Pre-Chorus]
I said goodbye to winter time and radio shows
I cut the queue and terrorized the old folks home
[Chorus]
Waiting for the telephone
Pacing in the dark
Playing through an old song for a sentimental heart
But I can’t get back to the start
[Wurlitzer Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
I said goodbye to winter time and radio shows
I cut the queue and terrorized the old folks home oh oh
Oh oh
[Extended Chorus]
Waiting for the telephone
Pacing in the dark
Playing through an old song for a sentimental heart
But I can’t get back to the start
No, I can’t get back to the start
No, I can’t get back to the start
