SUZANNE VEGA lyrics : "Headshots"

The sign said "Headshots"
And that was all,
A picture of a boy

And a number you could call,
Two eyes in the shade
A mouth so sad and small,

It's strange the way a shadow
Can fall across the wall,
And make the difference

In what you see
Ah...


He's just a poster, but
He's everywhere,
A face under a street lamp

Ripped and hanging in the air,
Turn the corner
And he's still there,

Watching all the people
Who are passing unaware,
Is there a judgement

In what he sees?
Ah...


On a day
As cold
And gray

As today...

The sign says "Headshots"

It's all I see,
A boy becomes a picture
Of guilt and sympathy,

And so I think of you
In memory
Of the days we were together,

And I knew that you loved me
That was the difference
In what we see,

But that's history...
Ah...
