So, um, so we been doin' this, uh, this tour, this is,
I guess this is the fifth show we've done, Tim and I, and I - (cheering)
and uh, so this little song's been growin' out, uh, while we been playin',
so, it's a little story, and the little story,
I was in New York City, and, uh, I was walkin' down the streeeeeet,
tryin' to find the place I was goin', I can't remember where I was goin' now, but,
'cause I met this girl and I, is, I asked her directions, you know,
and she was, she was tiny, you know,
and she was- she wasn't young, she was just tiny,
and um, so I asked her directions,
and she said oh, that's the way down there,
walk over there and go down there and you walk over there
and you go down there and then you're there, or somethin' like that, I don't know...
So, uh, But I walked about ten paces away and I was thinkin'
daaaammn, that girl was fine. And ooooh,
I turned around to tell her so and ask her maybe her name,
or maybe if we should go and get a cup of, who knows, coffee or something,
and I'm sure if I turned around and find her there I would've found out something


but she talked so good
but when I turned around
she was gone
oh she was gone
i didn't even get her name
but i thought god
with your face in my mind
and your voice in my ears
still echoes
oh i bought her a lovely flower
stand there where we met that day
and hope that you would return
but no no no

i can't remember where i was going now
i can't remember where i was leading to
or what led me to you but
oh and it reaches out through my head
the look of you the sound
the way you cackled at me
from then and
i didn't know where I was going
but always i'll be

so hey
the hands that pour
my hands are on you again
hey i will beg you
i'll beg oh see me
please find me again

i'm lost again
i sit here drinking coffee
or water depending the time of day
but oh you're with me like a ghost of a mother
oh you're with me like the pain of a father
i wish i
i wish i could call you something
other than the girl that i saw then

but hey
i would recognize you in a second
but hey
i only saw you for a minute maybe less
i don't hold my hand where
but i waited honest
i'm lost now i'm lost now
i can't remember what i used to be
but hey yeah weighted by the memory of
the memory of a love that never got born
but hey

do i even cross your mind lately
with more than just a laughing
did you think as you walked away
maybe you were

hey
oh i hope you did
so hey yeah
you would
you would have been feeling
the same thing as i am know
i lost her
