Tell me, baby, tell me
Are you still on the stoop watching the windows close?
I've not seen you lately
On the street by the beach or places we used to go
I've a picture of you on our favorite day
By the seaside
There's a bird stealing bread that I brought
Out from under my nose
Tell me, baby, tell me
Does his company make light of a rainy day?
How I've missed you lately
And the way we would speak and all that we wouldn't say
Do his hands in your hair, feel a lot like a thing
You believe in
Or a bit like a bird stealing bread
Out from under your nose?
Tell me, baby, tell me
Do you carry the words around like a key or change?
I've been thinking lately
Of a night on the stoop and all that we wouldn't say
If I see you again on the street by the beach
In the evening
Will you fly like a bird stealing bread
Out from under my nose?
