You were down when I met you, but 
Deep in your eyes 
I could see the sign 
With a thousand drummers drumming, 
And a hundred singers singing songs of love. 
Whatever they knew about it 
Love 
Whatever it meant to them 

So we all met up after school 
And you took us home into your room 
You's skip class and drummed all day 
So I put my books down and picked up the camera 
Was it you that I fimed? 

You'd run 
And I'd follow 
I'd stayed and you'd gone 

She was in Chicago where the streets are paved 
With all those names of our heros 
And our dreams we tried 
But the house was raised 
And left an empty lot 

I know that you won't cry about it 
Hiding 
Hiding the tears in your eyes 

You'd run 
And I'd follow, 
I've stayed and you've gone 

So far in late October 
Nice and warmer without you here.
