Song Lyrics

Did I slip? Know I stumbled
Did I trip? 'Cause I know I fell
All's I know is I'll wake up
Here in my clothes tomorrow
Oh, girl I wish I knew you well
Oh, girl I wish I knew you well
But I'm just sayin'
Hi,
To your answering bell

Did I run? Thought I was walkin'
Through your inexhaustible gale
The names are changed but the constellations
Are still fallin'
Oh girl, if you could only tell
Oh girl, if you could only tell
And I'm just sayin'
Hi

Let your tears fall and touch my skin
Then your thunderclouds could rage with hail
I will collect them all for you in butterfly jars
Oh girl, I'll build your wishing well
Oh girl, I'll build your wishing well
And I'm just sayin' hi
To your answering bell

Did I sleep? I musta been dreamin'
Did I weep? 'Cause I cried like hell
All's I want is your fortress of tears
To crumble

Oh girl, I'd tear 'em down myself
Oh girl, the story's they could tell
And I'm just sayin' hi
