Walking on the sidewalk Down long, winding roads Carving through the city while my mind explodes I see a little girl wearing a velvet shirt with Marilyn Monroe It made me think of you as I found a new place to go
Staring down the windows Looking for a friendly face Pushing through the avenues with nothing left to replace I see a starlight sky and a million shining eyes And I remember the time we watched them go by
Leaning on the windowsill Listening to Midnight sing Only the lonely seem to remember everything I hear a country song coming from an open bedroom door It was the words you sang when you couldn't take the silence no more
Here comes the morning With the sweet summer sun Barreling down the alleyways and shining down on everyone I see a gypsy woman wearing a sundress painted red As she twirled her hair I couldn't get you out of my head
