Days Now Faded

You told me all about being young Inside the madness of Manhattan Taking the subway in your uniform And waiting for the summer sun And now your eyes they look like snow globes As all your thoughts drift eastward towards home You'll put on some old clothes in your wardrobe To try and connect you to your past Always looking around Always looking around For days now faded Stop waiting around Stop waiting around For an elevator key Sometimes when I glance over at you I see you're stuck inside your swimming pool Or in the hallway of your high school But your locker combinations changed, my how we've aged Always looking around Always looking around For days now faded Stop waiting around Stop waiting around For an elevator key Always looking around Always looking around For days now faded Stop waiting around Stop waiting around For floor 17 I guess the grass Is always greener In Central Park And in the darkness You still think about it Always looking around Always looking around For days now faded Stop waiting around Stop waiting around For an elevator key Always looking around Always looking around For days now faded Stop waiting around Stop waiting around For floor 17
