Lyrics

[00:19.90] I sold my piano
[00:24.15] It couldn't come with me
[00:30.04] I locked up my bedroom
[00:32.17]
[00:32.91] and I walked out into the air
[00:37.67] When nothing I needed
[00:44.92] is left there behind me
[00:49.29] I walk out through the shadows
[00:50.23]
[00:58.73] Now I wander the highway from Dublin to Berkeley
[01:08.98] and I heard the songbirds of Valley Paurine
[01:19.26] I love like a fountain
[01:23.38] and it left me like nothing
[01:26.63]
[01:28.32] just the memories of walking through Washington Square
[01:35.32]
[01:38.57] Now I live in the shadows
[01:43.20] where light is electric
[01:44.74]
[01:48.43] and time is just a number
[01:53.37] that rests on a wall
[01:58.68] Nobody knows me
[02:03.18] my friends and my family
[02:07.87] are as far from this city
[02:12.93] as Washington Square
[02:29.06]
[02:59.37] So cover this warm night
[03:02.56] in a blanket of starlight
[03:04.37] I will follow this freeway
[03:12.50] out into the air
[03:13.50]
[03:19.93] in case you should wonder
[03:22.37] and wanted to find me
[03:27.18] I'm traveling homeward to Washington Square
[03:33.76]
[03:37.63] in case you should wonder
[03:38.78]
[03:41.54] I'm in Washington Square
[03:53.35] Washington Square
[04:01.35]
[04:02.10] Washington Square
[04:09.60] Of Washington Square
