I said, "Always take me with you"
But she kicked me right on off that bus
I crawled four blocks back to apathy
And I smiled 'cause it's a long, long way back home
And back at 3rd and Washington
I finally got my feet back on the ground
I've found my moment of clarity
And I'd walk across the USA alone
Just for another day that I could spend with her
She's a million miles away
But she still means my whole world
Yeah, I'd traumatize the west coast every time
Always, the faith she placed inside of me
All night, the heart I placed inside of her
Some day our broken hearts will mend together
Every day I yearn that it'll be before I die
Now I stand somewhere in the architecture
Lost in this urban paradise
Of women too snide to stand beside me
Drinking from their endless coffee cups
And back at Newark and Hudson
I finally answered my own questions
Always, the faith she placed inside of me
All night, the heart I placed inside of her
Some day our broken hearts will mend together
Every day I yearn that it'll be before I die
She takes out her violin and she begins to play a tune
Something back from '65 back when we all felt more alive
It's the last time for The Last Time
(Back at Third and Washington, I finally got my feet back on the ground)
(Back at Newark and Hudson, I finally answered my own questions now)
