Washington Square

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Verse 3] Now I live in the shadows Where light is electric And time is a number That rests on a wall [Verse 4] And nobody knows me My friends and my family Are as far from this city As Washington Square [Verse 5] So cover this warm night In a blanket of starlight Then I'll follow this freeway Out into the air [Outro] 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
