Lyrics for Phone Booth

When I think about that night, last summer in the park
Starring at that couple, making out in the dark

Their bodies tangled, I couldn’t tell them apart
Our love was ending, but they were just at the start

I never should’ve made that phone call
I should’ve just bashed my head right there against the wall
But I’m not going to spend my life in this stall
I’ll get out of here even if I have to crawl

I leaned in closer, trying not to make a sound
They took off their clothes, they were sure they couldn’t be found
I smiled and turned to you, you were staring at the moon
It was bright and orange; it was going to be midnight soon

Smoke has risen, showing all your faults
Your blaze has been extinguished, your charm is now gone
The veil’s been lifted; I see your eyes now clearly
And I can’t fathom why, for the life of me

That’s when I realised; I was far from your mind
And this time we spent together, it was going to be for the last time
We started heading home and the couple did the same.
I looked at them, I envied their little game

I never should’ve made that phone call
I should’ve just bashed my head right there against the wall
But I’m not going to spend my life in this stall
I’ll get out of here even if I have to crawl

about

Camaromance image

Camaromance Montréal, Québec

The subjects of love, life, and death are all dealt with in an elegant fashion in Martine Groulx’s compositions, as they reach out and grab listeners. Camaromance’s third album, The Parade, is more grounded in Americana, with a hint of shoegaze and less in the folk/pop universe that she originally came from. For fans of pretty girls that rip your heart out, guitar in hand. ... more
