1
I stepped out of the St. James Hotel
2
I left you behind curled up like a child
3
A change is gonna come as the door whispered shut
4
I walked on down the high windowed hall
5
You lay sleeping on the unmade bed
6
The weatherman on the television in the St. James Hotel said
7
That the rains are gonna come and I stepped out on the streets
8
All sparkling clean with the early morning dew
9
Maybe it was you or maybe it was me?
10
You came on like a punch in the heart
11
Lying there with the light on your hair
12
Like a Jesus of the moon, a Jesus of the planets and the stars
13
Well, I kept thinking about what the weatherman said
14
And if the voices of the living can be heard by the dead
15
Well, the day is gonna come when we find out
16
In some kind of way I take a little comfort from that now and then
17
'Cause people often talk about being scared of change
18
But for me I'm more afraid of things staying the same
19
'Cause the game is never won
20
By standing in any one place for too long
21
Maybe it was you or maybe it was me?
22
There's a chord in you that I could not find to strike
23
You lying there with all the light in your hair
24
Like a Jesus of the moon, a Jesus of the planets and the stars
25
I see the many girls walking down the empty streets
26
Maybe once or twice one of them smiles at me
27
You can't blame anyone for saying hello
28
I say hey, I say hello, I say hello
29
Will it be me or will it be you?
30
One must stay and one depart
31
You lying there in the St. James Hotel bed
32
Like a Jesus of the moon, a Jesus of the planets and the stars
33
I say hello, hello, hello
