I couldn't bribe a wino on what I used to make
My Fortune was as sure as the wind But I was free to wonder and time was on my hands It was mine to burn and to bend Chorus: Freedom for freedom Call that an even scheme Give me time to wonder and to dream I'll take the money They'll take the time Down to the land of the bottom line To the bottom line Then there came a chance to make some steady dough Bouncing up my alley to the door You fill your clothes with keys and damned responsibilites Trading the maybe for the sure (Chorus) All I ever wanted was to be a kid and play Fighting every change along the way I don't like work, but I don't like waste And I don't like waiting for a taste (Chorus)> |

(1)
Take this as a warning To stay away from me Because the man that you used to know Is not the man that you're going to see Someday we may laugh at this Someday we may be friends But for now you can keep your distance Stay away till the pieces mend (2) This sudden lonliness has made me dangerous Please don't watch me while I fall apart 'Cause I'm sad and I'm angry And armed with a broken heart (3) And what will get me through the night Is what I'll use with all my might And to some peace I have a right But I pay so dearly And at my age I should be wise Now I'm untying all those ties The evidence is in the eyes That should see so clearly I once saw so clearly (4) You know I will say anything If it will keep you away But I don't know what I would do If you said you were gonna stay Don't do me any favors Don't try to ease the pain Won't you please let me hate you now So I won't fall for you again (Repeat 3, then 2) |

I lost my car to the Riverside Drive
Last seen heading up the upper west side One thirty eighth street one thirty nine What's yours is theirs, what's theirs was mine Now it's gone for parts, it's gone for fun It's gone for sure as any one No, they're not polite, they don't say please With the cover of night, they never use keys. Now there's a stranger in my driver's seat Broken glass around his feet The radio will change it's tune Removed beneath a New York moon The precinct has an icy clerk Her hand fills out the paper But the cops don't look for stolen cars You can wish upon a star It happens every now and then People see their cars again Some are found on cinder blocks With open trunks and busted locks They say in this town nothing sleeps That goes for thieves and chimney sweeps The smart ones say to keep your ride Park it on the Jersey side Now there's a stranger in my driver's seat Broken glass around his feet The radio will change it's tune Removed beneath a New York moon I lost my car to the Riverside Drive Last seen heading up the Upper West Side One thirty eighth street one thirty nine What's yours is theirs, what's theirs was mine Manhattan nights are full of rats Republican and democrats Most of them have learned the rules The rest of us just go to school Now there's a stranger in my driver's seat There's broken glass around his feet The radio will change it's tune Removed beneath a New York moon |

I saw a stranger with your hair
Tried to make her give it back So I could send it off to you Maybe Federal Express 'cause I'd know you'd miss it I saw another with your eyes Flash just turned my head I went to try them on for size They looked the other way They wouldn't miss 'em CHORUS But you're never hard to find in a crowd People around you smiling out loud Your feet don't touch the ground No, your feet don't touch the ground Your feet don't touch the ground I heard a stranger with your voice It took me by suprise Again I found it wasn't you Just an angel in disguise In for a visit By the way, how is my heart? I haven't seen it since you left I'm almost sure it followed you Would you sometime send it back? (CHORUS) I saw a stranger with your hair I saw another with your eyes I heard an angel with your voice |

I didn't know where to look for you last night
I didn't know where to find you I didn't know how I could touch that light That's always gathering behind you I didn't know that I would find a way To find you in the morning But love can pull you out of yesterday As it takes you without warning I want to be a long time friend to you I want to be a long time known Not one of your memory's used-to-bes A summer's fading song Chorus: It's from me, it's to you For your eyes It's a weight, a wonder that is wise I am here, you are there Love is our cross to bear I know I'll think of us upon that hill With the golden moon arising And the stars will fall around us still While the love is realizing And so it is until we meet again And I throw my arms around you You can count the gray hairs in my head I'll still be thankful that I found you |
