of the New York Public Library
On 5th Avenue and 42nd Street
to find out what to say to you
But every word in every dictionary
Changes its meaning every day
Frustrated, searching for that word
I'll never find on the page
I'll never know just what to say
Hey you, hey you, look over here
Hey you, hey you, I know you know me,
Sittin' through the vaults
of the Steinhardt Aquarium
I'm trying to find the missing link
Between the world you live in ,
and the wine that we drink.
and seems to fade into the air.
traverse the world so easily,
so I'll pretend that I don't care.
And I say, hey you, hey you,
Hey you, hey you, you've known me for years
We are turning left to Park Road
Searching for artifacts of ancient cities
For the map that leads to you
that passes through my hand
Contains the memories of the past
I'd have to count each one
to figure out what we have done
And how we found our love at last
I see you in the darkness
of the forests in the evening
In the shadows where you run
In the crowds along the platforms
In every thread that comes undone
I'm using all my mental powers
Just to make you turn your head
Then all the spells and all the talismans
Will be redundant, it will be unsaid
So I say, hey you, hey you,
