Sounds Rushing

Shammy [unverified] cleaning all the windows Singing songs about Edith Piaf's soul And I hear blue strains of no regredior Across the street from Cathedral Notre Dame Meanwhile back in San Francisco We're trying hard to make this whole thing blend As we sit upon this jagged Storey block, with you my friend And it's a long way to Buffalo It's a long way to Belfast city too And I'm hoping the choice won't blow the hoist 'Cos this town, they bit off more than they can chew As we gaze out on, as we gaze out on As we gaze out on, as we gaze out on Saint Dominic's preview, Saint Dominic's preview Saint Dominic's preview All the orange boxes are scattered We get to Safeway's supermarket in the rain And everybody feels so determined Not to feel anyone else's pain You know that no one's making no commitments To anybody but themselves Hidin' behind closed doorways Tryin' to get outside, outside of empty shells And for every cross-cuttin' country corner For every Hank Williams railroad train that cried And all the chains, badges, flags and emblems And every strain on every brain and every eye [unverified] As we gaze out on, as we gaze out on As we gaze out on, as we gaze out on Saint Dominic's preview, Saint Dominic's preview Saint Dominic's preview And the restaurant tables are completely covered The record company has paid out for the wine You got everything in the world you ever wanted Right about now your face should wear a smile That's the way it all should happen When you're in, when you're in the state you're in You've got your pen and notebook ready I think it's about time, time for us to begin And we're over in a 52nd Street apartment Socializing with the whino few Just to be hip and get wet with the jet set But they're flying too high to see my point of view As we gaze out on, as we gaze out on As we gaze out on, as we gaze out on Saint Dominic's preview, Saint Dominic's preview Saint Dominic's preview See them freedom marching Out on the street, freedom marching Saint Dominic's preview
