The Dresden Dolls - Christopher Lydon lyrics

Clutching the phone till my hands were sore

I never understood pain before, Christopher

You cannot know what it does to me

Hearing you speak with this frequency

I never knew what one voice could do

I was in heaven the moment I heard you

My friends go out drinking and having fun -

I stay in bed with my headphones on

Shot down with arrows from waves above

Christopher Lydon renounced my love

It took so long to get through to you

I never understood sorrow, and now I do

I finally got past your moniter,

You broke my heart in two, Chrisopher

Christopher, I was your listener, Christopher,

I've never felt love like this before, Christopher,

Christopher, now and forevermore, Christopher

I'll never stop saying Christopher, Christopher

Finally I knew what I had to do

I had to make the connection with you

I dont care if your old and incontinent

I will be yours til the bitter end...

So during a show about Joan of Arc

I got through and said:

"Christopher Lydon, you've stolen my heart"

When I asked if you felt the same way for me

You cut me off like a guillotine

Drawn like a bull to a matador-

I just see visions of Chrisopher

Shot down by arrows from waves above

Christopher Lydon renounced my love

Christopher, I was your prisoner, Christopher,

I hope you're happy now, Chistopher

Thank you for everything,

But I'm not listening anymore nor do I plan to contribute to NPR

Christopher, beautiful, Christopher,

I'm the girl you've been waiting for
