Somewhere

Shadows run so mysterious
 Silhouetted as they pirouette
 Behind the stairs
 That take them farther from home
 17th street, Tenth Avenue
 The ice age fell so just deal with it
 Put your gloves in your pocket boy
 Let's go to war
 Light years from the parking lot I once played
 And the bed last night where I laid
 Open the curtains boy
 It's time
 Somewhere tomorrow's promise rings
 Somewhere a Sunday choir sings
 Somewhere is where I want to be
 Time Square, it's a carnival
 Were there lights?
 I failed to notice
 But twenty seven needles lay
 In the cracks where I walk
 For all the dreams and the saviors we once knew
 All the flags we waved without a clue
 Open the curtains boy
 It's time
 Somewhere tomorrow's promise rings
 Somewhere a Sunday choir sings
 Somewhere is where I want to be
 In New Orleans lies the punishment
 Distorted eyes look past the crime scene
 Year after year
 Waiting to be found
