Lyrics

The lights turned on and the curtain fell down
 And when it was over it felt like a dream
 They stood at the stage door and begged for a scream
 The agents had paid for the black limousine
 That waited outside in the rain
 Did you see them?
 Did you see them?
 ♪
 Did you see them in the river?
 They were there to wave to you
 Could you tell that the empty-quivered, brown-skinned Indian
 On the banks that were crowded and narrow
 Held a broken arrow?
 ♪
 Eighteen years of American dream
 He saw that his brother had sworn on the wall
 He hung up his eyelids and ran down the hall
 His mother had told him a trip was a fall
 And don't mention babies at all
 Did you see him?
 Did you see him?
 ♪
 Did you see him in the river?
 He was there to wave to you
 Could you tell that the empty-quivered, brown-skinned Indian
 On the banks that were crowded and narrow
 Held a broken arrow?
 ♪
 The streets were lined for the wedding parade
 The queen wore the white gloves, the county of song
 The black-covered caisson her horses had drawn
 Protected her king from the sun rays of dawn
 They married for peace and were gone
 Did you see them?
 Did you see them?
 ♪
 Did you see them in the river?
 They were there to wave to you
 Could you tell that the empty-quivered, brown-skinned Indian
 On the banks that were crowded and narrow
 Held a broken arrow?
