If She Called

  • She grinds her hips
    Maybe arches her back
    There's nobody there to see when she is doing that
    The guy's not there
    He just doesn't exist
    She's looking at empty space when she is doing this
    She might walk home
    She's kind of tired
    Or spend some of the money on a cab she's hired

    Below a bus groans by
    And splashes a man
    Who swears out a drunkard's curse on the whole damned world
    She smiles at that
    And then starts to cry
    She scrubs at a spot on her leg and then lets it dry

    Then she's sitting on the floor
    With her head hung down
    Listening to another language on TV
    Unaware, hair unbound
    Wondering where her mother and father might be
    If she called, if she called

    She dreams, she dreams
    Don't we all dream
    A place, a way
    A recurring theme

    She remembers a time
    When love was alive
    Somehow it get's lost in the sound of the city's morning drive
    Lost in the sound of the city's roaring, morning drive Writer/s: DAVID CROSBY, STERLING PRICE
