The Day I Saw Bo Diddley In Washington Square

She looks the other way, a painted smile from yesterday
She left here dreams out in the rain

She doesn't see me there, offers up a silent prayer
And swears that she can taste the sweet champagne

What does she dream of when she is dancing?
And when did she learn how to fly?
Cause the faded flower of Broadway shines her buttons with her tears
And the faded flower of Broadway, she's a million miles from here

A sun of orange, a sky of green, and middle people in between
The colors melting in her hand

She's always looking up, hears the pennies in the cup
And "Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band"

What does she dream of when she is dancing?
And when did she learn how to fly?
Cause the faded flower of Broadway shines her buttons with her tears
And the faded flower of Broadway, she's a million miles from here

What does she dream of when she is dancing?
And when did she learn how to fly?
Cause the faded flower of Broadway shines her buttons with her tears
And the faded flower of Broadway, she's a million miles from here
Cause the faded flower of Broadway shines her buttons with her tears
And the faded flower of Broadway, she's a million miles from here
