I will rise up early and dress myself up nice And I will leave the house and check the deadlock twice. And I will find a crowd and blend in for a minute And I will try to find a little comfort in it. And I will get lonely and gasp for air. And send your name up from my lips like a signal flare.
And I will go downtown, stand in the shadows of the buildings And button up my coat, trying to stay strong, spirit willing. And I will come back home, maybe call some friends, Maybe paint some pictures, It all depends. And I will get lonely and gasp for air. And look up at the high windows, and see your face up there.
