GStumbling past your house baby
DAt the break of day
AmI thought I saw your silhouette
CDancing cross the shade
GAnd I went down to the mission
DI called and called your name
AmTill an angel with a face like yours
CCame down and let me in
Thought I saw your reflection in a cigarette machine
In a bottle in the gutter
In a window on the street
In a storefront in a picture on an old broken TV
I swear it was you staring back at me
I heard soldier?s voices by the city gate
There were junkies lying on the ground
They made me look away
I spilled you in a mirror
I chopped you into lines
Over some old kitchen sing
I swore I?d let you die
Thought I saw your reflection in a cigarette machine
In a bottle in the gutter
In a window on the street
In a storefront in a picture on an old broken TV
I swear it was you staring back at me
Old radios and broken mirrors
Dogeared things I read
Worn out movie stars
In faded limousines
I stumble through my own charades
Coffee cups and clowns
I can?t keep up with parades
I keep falling down
Thought I saw your reflection in a cigarette machine
In a bottle in the gutter
In a window on the street
In a storefront in a picture on an old broken TV
I swear it was you staring back at me
