BOOK FOUR: DISCOVERY lyrics: J. Morse © 1984 XVIII - Business Strip (part two) On the final run, my goal comes into view I pass the storefronts on my way to you The lights are soft aglow, faintest neon buzz We know there's nothing we can do To return to the past And see ourselves as we were As we were. . . Remember what you thought long ago All the poor men's children dying away You never thought you'd look at things that way XIX - Intersection Do me just a little favor and prepare yourself for me I'm not the man you knew before, just look and you will see Though I still think I want you, I'm not so sure it's real But shortly I'll find out at last, and discover how I feel Things have changed Rearranged I'm going against the flow on a busy one-way street I can't stop to smile at the faces that I meet Cross that intersection, just a few hundred yards to go My eyes light on your features, and now I know Things have changed Rearranged What's the game? Nothing is the same XX - Meal Ticket (instrumental) XXI - On My Way Walking down the final road to your door I realize just what you mean to me As I run down the final road to you To you. . . I'm on my way to you, I'm on my way I've been waiting impatiently for this day to come I can't find the proper words to say I'm on my way to you, I'm on my way It's finally time, it's happening We just waited far too long I've got you in my sights tonight You're right where you belong I'm on my way to you, I'm on my way The things that I planned out begin to play in my mind I can't find the proper words to say I'm on my way to you, I'm on my way Now. . . I've arrived And we're up against the wall You. . . have me now Lined up just behind the eight ball Composition notes on CITY |
