It was raining hard in 'Frisco |
| [00:15.431] |
I needed one more fare to make my night |
| [00:19.462] |
A lady up ahead waved to flag me down |
| [00:23.928] |
She got in at the light |
| [00:29.782] |
Oh, where you going to, my lady blue |
| [00:33.682] |
It's a shame you ruined your gown in the rain |
| [00:40.149] |
She just looked out the window, she said |
| [00:44.028] |
"Sixteen Parkside Lane" |
| [00:57.211] |
Something about her was familiar |
| [01:00.418] |
I could swear I'd seen her face before |
| [01:04.868] |
But she said, "I'm sure you're mistaken" |
| [01:08.299] |
And she didn't say anything more |
| [01:14.849] |
It took a while, but she looked in the mirror |
| [01:18.847] |
And she glanced at the license for my name |
| [01:23.370] |
A smile seemed to come to her slowly |
| [01:26.891] |
It was a sad smile, just the same |
| [01:33.262] |
And she said, "How are you Harry? |
| [01:37.228] |
I said, "How are you Sue? |
| [01:41.475] |
Through the too many miles |
| [01:43.292] |
And the too little smiles |
| [01:45.772] |
I still remember you" |
| [02:07.543] |
It was somewhere in a fairy tale |
| [02:11.747] |
I used to take her home in my car |
| [02:15.829] |
We learned about love in the back of the Dodge |
| [02:19.821] |
The lesson hadn't gone too far |
| [02:25.780] |
You see, she was gonna be an actress |
| [02:30.192] |
And I was gonna learn to fly |
| [02:34.352] |
She took off to find the footlights |
| [02:38.267] |
And I took off to find the sky |
| [02:54.297] |
Whoa, I've got something inside me |
| [02:59.074] |
To drive a princess blind |
| [03:02.445] |
There's a wild man, wizard |
| [03:05.634] |
He's hiding in me, illuminating my mind |
| [03:11.873] |
Oh, I've got something inside me |
| [03:18.079] |
Not what my life's about |
| [03:21.400] |
'Cause I've been letting my outside tide me |
| [03:26.568] |
Over 'till my time, runs out |
| [03:47.297] |
Baby's so high that she's skying |
| [03:54.127] |
Yes she's flying, afraid to fall |
| [04:03.292] |
I'll tell you why baby's crying |
| [04:10.215] |
'Cause she's dying, aren't we all |
| [04:24.731] |
There was not much more for us to talk about |
| [04:28.841] |
Whatever we had once was gone |
| [04:32.670] |
So I turned my cab into the driveway |
| [04:36.494] |
Past the gate and the fine trimmed lawns |
| [04:42.952] |
And she said we must get together |
| [04:46.735] |
But I knew it'd never be arranged |
| [04:50.779] |
And she handed me twenty dollars |
| [04:53.154] |
For a two fifty fare, she said |
| [04:55.324] |
"Harry, keep the change" ” |
| [05:01.250] |
Well, another man might have been angry |
| [05:04.943] |
And another man might have been hurt |
| [05:09.087] |
But another man never would have let her go |
| [05:13.130] |
I stashed the bill in my shirt |
| [05:19.202] |
And she walked away in silence |
| [05:23.042] |
It's strange, how you never know |
| [05:25.555] |
But we'd both gotten what we'd asked for |
| [05:31.328] |
Such a long, long time ago |
| [05:39.366] |
You see, she was gonna be an actress |
| [05:43.785] |
And I was gonna learn to fly |
| [05:48.351] |
She took off to find the footlights |
| [05:51.443] |
I took off for the sky |
| [05:57.832] |
And here, she's acting happy |
| [06:02.076] |
Inside her handsome home |
| [06:06.133] |
And me, I'm flying in my taxi |
| [06:10.077] |
Taking tips, and getting stoned |
| [06:16.075] |
I go flying so high, when I'm stoned |
