Intro

tell me, baby, tell me-ee are you still on the stoop

 watching the wind-ows close?

i've not seen you lately – yy on the street by the beach

 or places we used to-oo go

 i've a picture of you on our f-ay-vorite day by the sea side

 there's a bird stealing bread that i brought out from under my nose

tell me, baby, tell me-ee does his company make

 light of a rainy-yy day?

how i've missed you lately-yy and the way we would speak

 and all that we wouldn't say

 Do his hands in your hair feel a lot like a thing you believe in

  or a bit like a bird stealing bread out from under your nose?

tell me, baby, tell me-eeee do you carry the words

 around like a key or change?

i've been thinking lately-yyy of a night on the stoop and all that

 we wouldn't say

 if i see you again on the street by the beach in the evening

 will you fly like a bird stealing bread out from under my nose?
