I'm out on the street
|
All alone by the newsstand
|
The lady of leisure comes
|
Tearin' by
|
Almost knocking me down
|
|
She turns at the corner
|
And looking back
|
Lets her eyes send the message
|
I'm helpless alone
|
And I'm goin' down
|
|
Help me I need someone gentle to love me
|
My life is a miserable comedy
|
Of strangers
|
Posing as friends
|
I know they don't know
|
Who I am
|
|
Hurry it's time to make your move boy
|
Hurry better get along with it soon boy
|
Hurry there she goes
|
Hurry she's out the door boy
|
You know you can win the battle
|
But you can lose
|
The war
|
Hurry are your feet glued to the pavement boy
|
You know you can win the battle
|
But you can lose
|
The war
|
|
Thought I saw a fox I did I saw a fox
|
Amidst that sea of pride
|
Running
|
Let me call a hansom cab
|
We'll both get in and then go for a ride
|
Nowhere
|
Nothing spoken I retreat
|
Find the subway take a seat
|
I let myself get in my way
|
And let her get away
|
|
I got off the train at the next stop
|
And headed back uptown
|
I knew I could find her
|
She so needed a friend
|
|
I found her alone in a doorway
|
The tears in her eyes
|
Said there's nothing that you can say
|
I just need an ending
|
|
I gave her a flower
|
And got her to smile
|
And asked her quite frankly
|
Would she not prefer
|
A beginning
|
