You said I just crossed 6th avenue
Looked like I hoped that they would keep driving
And it's true halfway through of my crossing to you I thought about dying

But it was just a passing thought
Everyone did what the streetlights were signing


CHORUS
Still I thought of relaxing after the impact
Feeling weightless in fact

From the hood of a taxi cab
I'd have the sensation
Of flying

Rising above you
Over the traffic on 6th avenue


Sometimes I'm so invisible
With ten million faces around me
And then when I see you across 6th avenue I'm glad that you found me

Still it was just a passing thought
Everyone did what the streetlights were signing


REPEAT CHORUS

Sometimes I miss the train

Sometimes I meet a stranger
And then we share a cab and then she makes me laugh and forget what I lack and about the impact and I start to relax and I have the sensation
Of flying

Rising above you
Over the traffic on 6th avenue
