I Feel Like Buddy Holly

by The McCalmans

on Honest Poverty (1993)

I watched the planes fly in
On the early morning flights
But I could not stand to see them land without you

And I'm running through my 45's on another lonely night
And the same old line, going back in time
Tell me this is nothing new

And I feel like Buddy Holly
'Cause it's raining in my heart
All the sad songs take me back to you
Now that we are apart
And I know how Paul Mc
Cartney felt
When he got up to say
"I wish it was yesterday"

{Instrumental]

So I sit here playing solitaire
It's a game I know so well
Ever since the day you called to say it's over

And I've made my reservation at the Heart Break Hotel
Thinking about you, no good without you
Only the lonely know

And I feel like Buddy Holly
'Cause it's raining in my heart
All the sad songs take me back to you
Now that we are apart
And I know how Paul Simon felt
And the words he found
"I wish I was homeward bound"

And I feel like Buddy Holly
'Cause it's raining in my heart
All the sad songs take me back to you
Now that we are apart
And I know how Paul Mc
Cartney felt
When he got up to say
"I wish it was yesterday"
