In Your City

When I got off the bus it was six in the evening Snow was blowing across the intersection For the last six hours I've been lost in a book So it took me a second to remember what I was doing Standing in the middle of a bustling sidewalk Under barren branches silhouetted by street lamps I reached into my overcoat pocket And brought out a letter with your address on it And I may be dreaming but I've come to you I have nowhere else to run How you gonna say what's never been said? I'll tell you how it's done You just look into your eyes You look into your eyes And follow 'em down, you gotta follow 'em down Till the streets are lined with trees On the last block there's a little blue house It's the only house I see And up in the window a light still shines Your daddy showed you what was wrong with life I wanna show you how to make it right Hey, hey baby, I'm in your city Tonight
