Tiger Phone Card

Lyrics by Zac Holtzman and Dengue Fever

Zac Holtzman: You live in Phnom Penh

Chhom Nimol: You live in New York City

Together:
But I think about you so so so so
So much I forget to eat

Zac Holtzman: It’s 4 am I check my email

Chhom Nimol: I’m too geared up to fall asleep

Together:
So I write you back and count the days until we’ll be together

Chhom Nimol: The first thing that I’ll do
Is

Together:
Throw my arms around you

Zac Holtzman: And never let go

Chhom Nimol: And never let go

Zac Holtzman: I call you from my hotel room
I’m sitting on the hallway floor
I know that we are so
So so
So tired my phone card just expired

Chhom Nimol:
You only call me when you’re drunk
I can tell it by your voice
It’s the only time that you
Open up to me and tell me that you love me

The first thing that I’ll do
Is

Together:
Throw my arms around you

Zac Holtzman: And never let go

Chhom Nimol: And never let go

Zac Holtzman: I’m thirty-thousand feet high
Flying through the dead of night
I took an Ambien and you came to visit me in my dreams.

Chhom Nimol: You were bathed in blue light
Floating right in front of me
Your face was so
So so
So bright I had to close my eyes to see

The first thing that I’ll do
Is

Together:
Throw my arms around you

Zac Holtzman: And never let go

Chhom Nimol: And never let go

Together:
Never let go oh oh
Never let go oh oh
Never let go oh oh
Never let go oh oh
Never let go oh oh
