You were walking all alonenSinging my praisenTo every lonely bird who passed your waynHey ey ey (Hey Hey)nnAnd I was drinking downtownnI drank myself straightnAn unwelcome changenI can count better daysnThese endings rearrangennAnd if you see me walking downnFirst Avenue with my eyes to the groundnJust relaxnBaby just relaxnnI'm in an hourglass housenWhere no one staysnAnd I'm painting in a roomnTo match my waysnHey ey ey (Hey Hey)nnAnd if you see me walking downnFirst Avenue with my eyes to the groundnJust relaxnAnd know we're gonna passnnAnd if you see me walking downnFirst Avenue with my eyes to the groundnIf I can only respond to the soundnRemember, could I escape myself nownnRelax, and know we're gonna pass
