Spent a little time in Montreal
With a fire in the sun
Smokescreen covering

Over the entire city
And you know
I think that I saw you

In a different light

Whether or not

It was the wine
A quiet determination
Maybe something or someone

That you didn't know existed in you
And I think I loved you
Even more


So come on
Follow me down the alleyway

Upside down sign is hanging upright
In the door
Sitting on the steps in Montreal

I'm waiting for you
To spread your wings


Rage building
Held under by a desire
To understand

And I think I got it
The mystery that
I saw in my dreams


Became you in the flesh
Bones and all


S' come on,
Follow me down the alleyway

Upside down sign is hanging upright
In the door
Sitting on the steps in Montreal

I'm waiting for you
To spread your wings


You just sat there
In the background on the canvas
Watching me

Knowing every little fear
Phobia and twitch
Quietly laughing to yourself

Keeping me inside you
Away from the fear
Surrounding me


Come on,
Follow me down the alleyway

Upside down sign is hanging upright
In the door
Sitting on the steps in Montreal

I'm waiting for you

To spread your wings...
