I came here, I waited
to see it, to say this
what started on fourth street is finished
Is finished

I came back to see it
Through new eyes
And feel it
I waited all night
on boards by the waterside

I had a dream you went to New York
You found new friends
You had new work
I wasn’t there but I came to visit
we sat on the bridge and talked of the difference

We spoke of the long ago
promised each other we’d never get old
but that was a whole life ago
and now I’m on my own

I came here, to see it
through new eyes and feel it
I waited all night on boards by the waterside

I had a dream you went to New York
You found new friends
You had new work
I wasn’t there but I came to visit
I slept on your floor watched the wind in the curtains

Maybe it’s enough to know
I never walk alone
I get by on my own
I’ll always be my only home

I came here, I waited to see it
to say this
what started on fourth street is finished
