lyrics

We were standing on the precipice
On the border ‘twixt the reservoir and the park
And the sun was in your eyes
And the wind was in your heart
We were overlooking Jackie O
And the city spires that set the sky apart
I was swimming in your eyes
Gasping and diving,
narrowly escaping the ever-leery hooks of
the fisherman of Central Park

And you were bouncing into Graceland
And I was the only living boy in New York
This is the story, for the record
Of the way we found each other in the dark

We were standing on the canopy
Of the island in between the rivers cold
And the stars were in my eyes
And a song was in my soul
I was holding you in renaissance
With the city spires far, yet ever-bright
And I dreamed we could become
Sculptures of stone,
Gnashing and twisted, rushing back to relive this moment every night

And you could be my bodyguard
I could be the one to love you like a rock
This is the story for the record
Of the way we found each other in the dark
