Intro: , , 

                     
tell me, baby, tell me,
                                                      
are you still on the stoop watching the windows close?
                       
i've not seen you lately 
                                               
on the street by the beach or places we used to go 


                                               
i've a picture of you on our favorite day by the seaside 
                                                             
there's a bird stealing bread that i brought out from under my nose?

verse two: (same chords as above)
tell me, baby, tell me 
does his company make light of a rainy day? 
how i've missed you lately 
and the way we would speak and all that we wouldn't say 

do his hands in your hair feel a lot like a thing you believe in?
or a bit like a bird stealing bread out from under your nose? 

verse three: (same chords as above)
tell me, baby, tell me 
do you carry the words around like a key or change? 
i've been thinking lately 
of a night on the stoop and all that we wouldn't say 

if i see you again on the street by the beach in the evening 
will you fly like a bird stealing bread out from under my nose?
