I sold my piano
|
It couldn't come with me
|
I locked up my bedroom
|
And I walked out into the air
|
When nothing I needed
|
Is left there behind me
|
I walk out through the shadows
|
Of Washington Square
|
|
I wandered the highways from Dublin to Berkeley
|
And I heard the songbirds of Valley Paurine
|
I love like a fountain
|
And it left me with nothing
|
Just the memories of walking through Washington Square
|
|
Now I live in the shadows
|
Where light is electric
|
And time is a number
|
That rests on a wall
|
|
And nobody knows me
|
My friends and my family
|
Are as far from this city
|
As Washington Square
|
|
So cover this warm night
|
In a blanket of starlight
|
Then I'll follow this freeway
|
Out into the air
|
|
In case you should wonder
|
And wanted to find me
|
I'm traveling homeward to Washington Square
|
I'm traveling homeward to Washington Square
|
Washington Square
|
Washington Square
