The lonely sidewalk shines like diamonds
The city traffic hurts my bones
Smoking heat upon my shoulders
And my pockets full of stones

An empty bag blows by my feet
I feel a breeze
Then suddenly

I see her run in her summer clothes
To the beating of a thousand drums
See her run steady as she goes
That’s my baby
And I know she’s looking for me

Then my perfect vision passes
Into faces I don’t know
I’ve lost my angel to the masses
And my heart begins to slow

Sirens cry above this human see
I hear her voice
Then suddenly

I see her run in her summer clothes
To the beating of a thousand drums
See her run steady as she goes
That’s my baby
And I know she’s looking for me

I see her run in her summer clothes
To the beating of a thousand drums
See her run steady as she goes
That’s my baby
And I know she’s looking for me
