Cross the water and home through the town

Past the shadows that fall down wherever we meet

Pretty soon I won't come around

I'm almost drowning in her sea

She's nearly fallen to her knees

Take the way home that leads back to Sullivan St.

Where all the bodies hang on the air

If she remembers, she hides it whenever we meet

Either way now, I don't really care

She's down on her knees
