You've been out on the street

Talking 'bout the war with me

And the background is at night

Don't want to hesitate

Will they tell me where you're hiding?

But through the haze there's no one there

Wondering if you care?

Calling out your name in the darkness

When I'm done with my time here

And my keepsake is strong

Through the railways

But I never mind going

And I realize now that the road is bare

And I hear it all through the grand parade

And I don't mind you disappearing

'Cause I know you can be found

Maybe living on the dark side of the street, damn

When we're living in the moment

And losing our grasp

Making it last with the grand parade in our past

Sometimes I wait for the cold wind to blow

As I struggle with myself right now

As I let her darkness in

But I don't mind chasing you

Through the back ways for the keys

It evaporates and fades like a grand parade

And I don't mind you disappearing

When I know you can be found

When you're living on the dark side of the street, damn

We're just living in the moment

Making our past

Losin' our grasp

Through the grand parade

I'll be here or I'll fade away

Never cared about moving

Never cared about now

Not the notes I'm playing

Is there room in the dark

In between the changes?

Like a light that's drifting

In reverse, I'm moving
