From the recording The Yamaha Sessions
Lyrics
I was on the subway.
I was walking down the stairs.
When I saw you standing there,
Through the window.
I got off my train,
And it wasn’t my stop.
But I had to see you,
You are the only one for me.
I ran onto the train,
And as it pulled away,
I saw you standing there,
Through the window.
And I knew right then,
That I had to find you.
Moving far apart,
But close together.
But close together,
Close together,
But close together.
So I called a cab,
I said 8th and Broadway.
You had a purple sweatshirt,
This was my chance to find you.
I got off my train,
And I headed backwards.
To the place that I last saw you,
Through the window.
As the night went by,
The streets were empty.
I walked around for hours,
But you were not there.
And I knew right then,
That I couldn’t find you.
As the night came to an end,
I headed back home.
I was on the subway,
I was walking down the stairs.
When I saw you standing there,
Through the window.
