Chartiers

You were down when I met you, but
 Deep in your eyes
 I could see the sign
 With a thousand drummers drumming,
 And a hundred singers singing songs of love.
 Whatever they knew about it
 Love
 Whatever it meant to them
 So we all met up after school
 And you took us home into your room
 You's skip class and drummed all day
 So I put my books down and picked up the camera
 Was it you that I fimed?
 You'd run
 And I'd follow
 I'd stayed and you'd gone
 She was in Chicago where the streets are paved
 With all those names of our heros
 And our dreams we tried
 But the house was raised
 And left an empty lot
 I know that you won't cry about it
 Hiding
 Hiding the tears in your eyes
 You'd run
 And I'd follow,
 I've stayed and you've gone
 So far in late October
 Nice and warmer without you here.
