Homicide, on the front page of the daily rag
Subway man fires into crowded screams
Boldfaced obscenity, a beauty queen

Scatters of poetry in her bag

5AM, drowned in the undecided dusk of day

Papers blown along the city streets
Everywhere I'm reminded of you


No, it's never the same
After all everything's changed
And I'm counting on you

To keep up with it

Scarlet nights

Stars in the stratosphere
Speeding light
Down from the heavens

You're counting your constellations

No, it's never the same

After all everything's changed
I'm counting on you


No, it's never the same
After all everything's changed
And I'm counting on you

I'm counting on you
