The main character describes a mysterious man she sees on the street. |
Like fog at dawn or the middle of the night You disappear before the first ray of light You are elusive as you wonder the street Nary a sound comes from beneath your feet Your eyes are hidden behind your jet black hair Behind the mask, I can feel your stare As I walk closer with growing fright You dive into the shadows, out of sight The next night, I come to find you There you were, but away you flew I scream for you, although I don't know your name I stood there waiting,but no response came Another night comes, and I leave home I journey into the jungle of glimmering chrome My mission is to find this mysterious man Before he slips through my fingers like trickling sand I spot you on the corner of 37th and Main My adrenaline and elation is hard to explain But I cannot stare for long Within a moment you could be gone I sneak up the street But fast enough so I will not meet defeat Dodging pedestrians that block my way Making sure none of them cause me a delay You control me You captivate me You mesmerize me You inspire me I can see you I can smell your cologne You are standing there You are gone |
