Lyrics:

So it goes, history shows, deserts must expand
Camels sail like wooden ships, like women down the strand
There's sand on second avenue and the wind blows like a train
Taxis line up like a string of pearls, around the block again
I remembered everything and every window pane
Every word came back to me and I was superman
But then I saw your face across the street
Through the tears of Herculesz
There's a bus that leaves at 8:15 and another one at ten
Should I climb aboard, risk everything, and ride it to the end?
Watch the hills like roller coasters up against the sky
Wish that you were here by me, so close that I could die
You said love wrecks everything and none of us survive
But I got over you tonight inside this empty dive
Till I saw your face across the street
Through the tears of Hercules
I remembered everything and every window pane
Every word came back to me and I was superman again
Till I saw your face across the street
Through the tears of Hercules
