The Tears Of Hercules

So it goes, history shows Deserts must expand Camels sail like wooden ships Like women on the strand There's a sand on second avenue And the wind blows like a train Taxis line up like a string of pearls Around the block again Chorus I remember everything and every window pane Every word came back to me Like I was Superman But then I saw your face across the street Through the tears of Hercules Verse 2 There's a bus that leaves at eighty fifty 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 Bridge You said love wrecks everything And none of us survive But I got over you last night In sadness, empty dies Refrain But then I saw your face across the street Through the tears of Hercules Instrumental Break Chorus I remember everything and every window pane Every word came back to me Like I was Superman 'Til I saw your face across the street Through the tears of Hercules Through the tears of Hercules
