- Barterers And Their Wives
Barterers and their wives
Barterers and their wives
Trading, fading, taking, breaking
Barter away their lives
Crowding the city gates
Shunning the master’s fate
Low decision they envision
- Bryant Hotel
Bryant hotel,
Cardboard ceilings and mayhem:
Nobody cares.
Hours for sale,
Broadway harlequin harem...
Foot of the stairs
It's a sunny day,
- Desiree
Everything returns again
Both the laughter and the rain
She is living somewhere for a while
Still I ask her in my lonely way to stay
Desiree desiree
Now she’s
- Ivy Ivy
You swear that it's always love
But it's not there or there's not enough
Ivy, Ivy
Ivy, when will you learn
That love cannot exist on lies
You only get what you earn
It's right before your eyes
- Pretty Ballerina
I had a date with a pretty ballerina
Her hair so brilliant that it hurt my eyes
I asked her for this dance and then she obliged me
Was I surprised, yeah
Was I surprised, no not at all
I called her yesterday, it should have been tomorrow
I could not keep the joy that was inside
- There's Gonna Be A Storm
Here you are.
Taking your life for granted while
dreaming of your enchanted isle.
Sit back and dream awhile...awhile.
Hey hey hey there's gonna be a storm.
And if the time will come, I will follow you.
I'll speak the same words then as you liked me to.
- Walk Away Renee
And when I see the sign that points one way
The lot we used to pass by every day
Just walk away, Renée
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame
