Another Small Degree

I called you from a phone booth
Outside a general store
I’ll be home tomorrow
And I couldn’t love you more
Ah, but when I get there
Baby, you will see
The depth of love I offer is
Another small degree

Hot as a thermometer
You inflame my point of view
Wherever I go, darling
My needle points to you

I overheard you list’ning
To imaginary breeze
All the world was whispering
Through some hollowed redwood trees
And when their blended voices
Rippled ‘cross the cloudy sea
They told you I loved you by
Another small degree

Hot as a thermometer
You inflame my point of view
Wherever I go, darling
My needle points to you

I watched as you were looking
At the shoreline through my eyes
I always look the brightest
When the sun is on the rise
That I’m not the wisest man
Never mattered much to me
As long as I can love you
Another small degree

As long as I can hold you
For all eternity
As long as I can love you
Another small degree.
