It was raining hard in Frisco, I needed one more fair to make my night,

 A lady up ahead waved to flag me down and she got in at the light,

Where are you going my lady blue, its a shame you ruined you gown in the rain,

 She just looked out the window, she said sixteen parkside lane,

Something about her was familiar, I could swear I seen that face before,

 But she said Im sure your mistaken, and she didnt say anything more,

It took a while but she looked in the mirror and she glanced at the license

 for my name, A smile seemed to come to her slowly, it was a sad smile just

 the same,

 And she said how are you Harry, I said How are you Sue,

 Through the too many miles and two little smiles I still--- remember you

It was somewhere in a fairy tale, I used to drive her home in my car,

 We learned about love in the back of a Dodge, the lessons hadn’t gone to

far,

 You see she was gonna be an actress, and I was gonna learn to fly

She took off to find the footlights, I took off to find the sky

Bridge

Ive got something inside me, to make a princess blind,

There's a wild man wizard hes hiding in me, illuminatin my mind,

Ive got something inside me, not what my life's about

Cause Ive been letting my outside tide me over till my time runs out

Weird high singing interlude, I just play some jazzy 7 chords. If anyone has the

chords or lyrics for this section please post or send them to me.

There was not much more for us to talk about, whatever we once had was gone,

 So I turned my cab into the driveway, past the gate and the fine trimmed

lawn,

And she said we must get together, but I knew It'd never be arranged

 So she hand me twenty dollar for a two fifty fare and said Harry, Keep the

change

Well another man might have been angry, and another man might have been

 hurt, but another man never would have let her go, I stashed the bill in my

shirt,

 And she walked away in silence, its strange how you never know,

 But we'd both gotten what we'd asked for, such a long, long, time ago,

You see she was gonna be an actress, and I was gonna learn to fly,

 She took off to find the footlights, I took off to find the sky

 And here's she's acting happy, inside her handsome home,

 and me I fly in my taxi, taking tips and gettin stoned

I go fly---ing so high, when Im stoned
