New front door, same address
Same front step, same back-porch
Geraniums to the terrace
Sold my shoes to pay the rent
I won't be needing them
I won't be leaving too soon
Oh my dear, do undress
You look so different in those new shoes
To impress someone you have never met
Someone you already know
Is waiting behind my front door
And by the door you know I'll wait
Oh, by the window, by the gate
I'm waiting for your sound
So softly, dear, don't hesitate
The lion looms along the lake
And swallows every sound
But oh, I wish that I could take
That simple lonely way
That long cold lonely way
But these days it takes more than two feet
It takes four to fill the road
I fend and swing the axe at for
I've trampled all over the place
Swung to and fro and still no state
Has held me in its bounds
But by the bridge I'd like to stay
Oh, by the ocean, by the bay
And hope that you'll come around
Oh, my dear, do undress
You look so different in those new clothes
To impress someone you have never met
I'm the one needing you
I'm the one with no shoes
So by the door you know I'll wait
Oh, looking out the golden gate
She yawns into the morning...
