Thought I saw you dancing on the tables late last night
High romancing with some college kid
Thought I saw you waltzing in the blue-grey bistro gloom
Thought I saw you dancing
Did you see me, too?
I’m the one in the photograph
You painted yesterday
A high relief reflection of your promises and pain
See me disappearing like a shadow at high noon
I will follow when you want me to
Thought I saw you writing like an outlaw on the dunes
Looking lost in the afternoon
Cool pretender with your poetry and blues
I remember
What it cost just being you
Now the Tarot cards are numbered
And the deck is made of gla**
The dealer’s made a bargain with his soul
I thought I saw you trembling as you threw it all away
I thought I saw you dancing
But the night had turned to day
I’m the one in the photograph
You painted yesterday
A cool reflection of your promises and pain
Believe in me before you throw it all away
Believe in me, I know the way
