1984
Did you see me walking down the street in 1984
Make up dripping from my face, I was a girl, I was a boy
The ocean breeze was very cold
I was never young I was never old
We played the games that young ones do
You loved me, and I loved you
Did you see me walking down the street in 1984
Make up dripping from my hands
I was a girl I was your toy
The ocean breeze was very cold
We were never young we were never old
You went home when the tide was high
Sang blondie songs straight to the sky
Chorus:
Blackberry boy, call me soon from your throne on the bright side of the moon
I will sing you songs and words of love and maybe she will strut her stuff
On the other side of the universe
But for now you are a tear on my shelf
Did you see me walking down the street in 1994
History dripping from my face
I was a man I was a boy
The ocean breeze was very cold
I was never young I was never old
We played the games that young men do
Did you forget me, like I forgot you
Chorus
Blackberry boy, call me soon from your throne on the bright side of the moon
I will sing you songs and words of love and maybe she will strut her stuff
On the other side of the universe
But for now you are a tear on my shelf
A tear to me
You remain dear to me
It's been some years since I've seen you
Are you still alive or are you blue
But for now you are a tear on my shelf
A tear to me
You remain dear to me
