So it goes, history shows
Deserts must expand
Camels sail-like wooden shipsLike women on the strand
There′s sand on second avenue
And the wind blows like a train
Taxis line up like a string of pearls
Around the block again
I remember everything and every windowpane
Every word came back to me like I was Superman
But then I saw your face across the street
Through the tears of Hercules
There's a bus that leaves at 8:15
Another one at ten
Should I climb aboard?
Risk everything and ride it to the end?
Watch the heels like rollercoasters
Up against the sky
And wish that you were here by me
So close that I could die
You said love wrecks everything
And none of us survive
But I got over you last night
In sadness, empty dies
But then I saw your face across the street
Through the tears of Hercules
I remember everything and every windowpane
Every word came back to me ike I was Superman
′Til I saw your face across the street
Through the tears of Hercules
Through the tears of Hercules
