Or liken me to a shoe,  blackened 
and spit-shone through. Kicking back
 home to you, smiling back home.

  Singing back home to you.  
Laughing back home to you,  Dragging
 back home    to you.

[Verse 2]
D                       
I was so wary then, The ugly 
D/B            D                 
American, Thinner than oxygen, 
   D/B        Em
Tough as a whore
D                           
I said you can lie to me, I own 
D/B                          D   
what's inside of me, And nothing 
                 D/B      Em
surprises me anymore
    G                   D/F#      
But forests in Germany, Kids in 
             F            
the Tuileries, Broken-down 
                        A
fortresses In old Italy

    D                     D/B     
And claiming his victory, Shrouded
             Em                  
 in mystery, He went running away 
        Em
with me

[Verse 3]
D                          D/B   
Back in our home New York, 
                            D    
Walking these streets forlorn, We 
                D/B       Em
all in our uniforms, Black and black
D                           
Doing that slouch and jive, The 
D/B                            D 
artist must survive, We've got 
                               D/B 
all we need we cried, And we don't 
           Em
look back
G                        D/F#    
Thinking we had it made, Poised 
                   F            
for the hit parade, Knee deep in 
                          A
accolades, The conceptual pair
    D                       D/B
But ever the malcontent, He left 
                    Em             
without incident, Vanished into 
             Em
thin air

[Verse 4]
D                       D/B      
Now I am always amazed, Words can
                 D                 
 fill up a page, Pages fill up the 
         D/B          Em
days, Between him and me
        D                       
But the vows that we never keep, 
      D/B                       
From bedrooms to business-speak, 
  D                          D/B  
Make me remember how cheap Words 
     Em
can be
        G                          
And the letters I wrote you of, 
  D/F#                             
Were those of the desperate stuff, 
  F                             A
Like begging for love in a suicide 
threat
    D                          D/B
But I am too young to die, Too old
                    Em             
 for a lullaby, Too tired for life 
       Em
on the ledge

[Verse 5]
D                                
But I had a dream last night, Of 
D/B                          D   
lovers who walked the plank, Out 
                    D/B        Em
on the edge of time Amidst ridicule
     D                         
They laughed as they rocked and 
         D/B                   
reeled, Over the mining fields, 
  D                      D/B      
Coming to rest on this ship of 
     Em
fools
    G                       D/F#  
But he just took Polaroids, Of her
              F                    
 smile in the light, Of the dawn of
              A
 the menacing sky
    D                              
And before they went overboard, She
 D/B                       Em     
 turned and held up a card And it 
     Em
said Valentine
