Lyrics:
sitting here wishing on a cement floor
just wishing that I had just something you wore

I put it on when I go lonely
will you take off your dress and send it to me?

I miss your kissing and I miss your head
and a letter in your writing doesn't mean you're not dead
run outside in the desert heat
make your dress all wet and send it to me

I miss your soup and I miss your bread
and a letter in your writing doesn't mean you're not dead
so spill your breakfast and drip your wine
just wear that dress when you dine

sitting here wishing on a cement floor
just wishing that I had just something you wore

bloody your hands on a cactus tree
wipe it on your dress and send it to me

sitting here wishing on a cement floor
just wishing that I had just something you wore
