Lyrics

Another Day

Down on Magazine Street the poets all can dance
All the ladies in waiting, dreaming of the south of France
Children play as their coloring the sky
While the old folks watch from the corner,
From the corner of their eyes

From my open window
I feel the sun begin to set
The rising smell of dinner
And the sound of a distant TV set

Another day to walk through the park on the hill, we could go anywhere
Another night to stare at the stars in the sky, we'll do it all the time
If the money should ever get tight, I know that we'll be all right
It's another day from the view at my window

Up on the rooftop, old man Meyer feeds his birds
His wife tends to her roses, up to her elbows in earth
They don't have to speak, they silently agree
They have been together since 1953

From my open window
I feel the sun begin to set
The rising smell of diner
And the sound of a distant TV set

Another day to walk through the park on the hill, we could go anywhere
Another night to stare at the stars in the sky, we'll do it all the time
If the money should ever get tight, I know that we'll be all right
It's another day from the view at my window

Out back behind Jonny's, isn't that the place we met
The kids are still hanging out there, sharing beer and cigarettes
I know they'll be fine, some might disagree
Well they will turn out all right, just like you and me
Just like you and me, well now, didn't we

From my open window
I feel the sun begin to set
The rising smell of diner
And the sound of a distant TV set

Another day to walk through the park on the hill, we could go anywhere
Another night to stare at the stars in the sky, we'll do it all the time
If the money should ever get tight, I know that we'll be all right
It's another day from the view at my window
