Paroles de la chanson Washington Square par Counting Crows

I sold my piano
It couldn't come with me
I locked up my bedroom and I walked out into the air
When nothing I needed was left there behind me
I walked out through the shadows of Washington Square

I wandered the highways from Dublin to Berkeley
And I heard the songbirds of Ballyporeen
But I loved like a fountain
And it left me with nothing
Just memories of walking through Washington Square
Now I live in the shadows where light is electric
And time is a number that rests on a wall

And nobody knows me
My friends and my family
Are as far from this city as Washington Square

So cover this warm night in a blanket of starlight
And I'll follow this freeway out into the air
In case you should wander and wanted to find me
I'm traveling homeward to Washington Square
