Lyrics:

You in your coat
Writing a note
'Dear Sal, I hope you'll agree...'
Then catching a bus
Just after dusk
A one way trip to the city
A cold water flat
A hot plate, a hat
The want ads are strewn on the floor
And you get so mad
When your ma and dad
Reflect when you look in the mirror
But I see you there
Nude at the top of the stairs
But so far away
And I recall all
Your dreams and your schemes moving me
The plans that we made
A street serenade
You can't be like your brother and Mike
Content just to live and get by
I hope that your fine
At 13th and 9
Waxing or waning? Your call

But I see you there
Alight at the top of the stairs
But so far away
And I recall all
Your dreams and your schemes moving me
The sense that it made
A street serenade
