Elliott Smith can t answer you anymore

Something came from nothing today
While I was saying no
So don't you knock on my door
Because I can't answer you anymore
Absence makes the heart grow far
Staying away from the people
Was a question before
But I can't answer you anymore
Stepped to the scene where we'd meet
And wrote a song
I did everything right for somebody
That does everything wrong
So I go from coast to coast
Over the Hawthorne Bridge
To the one I adore
You asked me what I'm looking for
But I can't answer you anymore
No, I can't answer you anymore
