Washington Square's right up the street.
That was the place where we would meet.
Outside the dog run don't be late,
most of the time I'd sit and wait
looking at people pass me by.
A customer's bagging his supply.
Just when you thought she wouldn't show
there she comes running, don't you know
Daylight's wasting
Daylight
And I can taste it

as it falls from the sky
I had a band of certain fame,
the Brownstone Walk-Ups was our name.
The singer was fair but got it wrong,
he never did justice to my songs.
He did for me and that's a fact
when he went and stabbed me in the back.
So I've gotta do now, don't you know,
what I should've done five years ago.
Daylight's wasting
Daylight
And I can taste it
as it falls from the sky
