Solo effort from a guy with the Postal Service, refers to the pain of texting “i love you” to some one, so instead use 11 digits to spell “love”

Jonna Lee - The District Sleeps Alone Tonight
(Postal Service cover)Smeared black ink
Your palms are sweaty and I’m barely listening
To last demands
I’m staring at the asphalt wondering
What’s buried underneathI’ll wear my badge
A vinyl sticker with big block letters
Adherent to my chest
That tells your new friends
I am a visitor here, I am not permanent
And the only thing keeping me dry isYou seem so out of context
In this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your door key
Explaining that I am just visiting
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leavingD.C. sleeps alone tonight
You seem so out of context
In this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your door key
Explaining that I am just visiting
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leavingThe district sleeps alone tonight
After the bars turn out their lights
And send the autos swerving
Into the loneliest evening
And I am finally seeing
Why I was the one worth leaving
Why I was the one worth leavingD.C. sleeps alone tonight
