Lyrics of

Paging Audrey

	
In the littlest hours ?tween the dusk and dawn
While the nightlight glows with the music on
You could climb so high in the dreamtime sky
And go anywhere


In that sometime place ever lost somehow
In the here and gone or the there and now
Did it all go bust - crumble down in dust
Or just slip away


Paging Audrey
Any random star
Lost and lonely
Somewhere very far
Paging Audrey
Come in from the cold


In that far-off room drenched in desert sun
Evil words were spoke - dirty deeds were done
Could we sail back there snatch them from the air
I dare anyone


Can we stand right here, call them back and say
Those were never meant to be heard that way
Let the heavens crack - let the day go black
I'd give anything


Paging Audrey
Somewhere very near
Safe and silent
There you are my dear
Paging Audrey
Anybody home


In a distant room certain things were said
As the loved one lies on the love-torn bed
And the night rolls on and by light of dawn
You're not anywhere


Paging Audrey
This is who we are
Do remember
On any random star
Paging Audrey
Coming strong and pure
