that's a good question
why am I standing out here alone
I guess I don't know enough to come in from the rain
was watching your window from here below
I think I just might stay here all day
cause I gotta do something

cause if I can't love you
I don't want to love you
if I can't hold you I don't wanna be thinking of you
and if you don't want me I don't want to want you
and if you won't see me I don't know what to do
I keep watching you
until I see right through

you can throw me down a cigarette
I smoked my last one quite a while ago
no I gave it to the man who swore he had no need
sometimes if I listen real close
I can hear the dark side of the moon
and there's always yesterday's times if I care to read
and I gotta do something

sure I'm all right
no I'm not very cold
you see every now and then I can feel the subway heat
so go on inside
I'll leave you alone
anyway Bogart is on in the window down the street
and I gotta do something
