From a pale blue rosary   From the presents I would leave   Underneath your pillow   Underneath your pillow   From there to here   From there to here   From a pale blue rosary to here   “You don’t need a reason to call”   “You don’t need a reason to call”   Could I have made it clearer   Made it any clearer   What was going on with me?   How see-through must I have been?   From the start you felt like home   I lost that sense of being alone   Through streets dark and empty   You held me in a taxi   How I needed to be held   Needed you between me and the world   I tried so hard not to give in   I tried to do the right thing   Whatever I was saying   Maybe I was hoping   We would get from there to here   From a pale blue rosary to here
