Some Journey |
| If I had met you on some journey |
| Where would we be now |
| If we had met some eastbound train |
| Through some black sleeping town |
| Would you have worn your silken robes |
| All made of royal blue? |
| Would I have dressed in smoke and fire |
| For you to see through? |
| If we had met in a darkened room |
| Where people do not stay |
| But shadows touch and pass right through |
| And never see the day |
| Would you have taken me upstairs |
| And turned the lamplight low? |
| Would I have shown my secret self |
| And disappeared like the snow? |
| Oh, I could have played your little girl |
| Or I could have played your wife |
| I could have played your mistress |
| Running danger down through you life |
| I could have played your lady fair |
| All dressed in lace like the foam from the sea |
| I could have been your woman of the road |
| As long as you did not come back home to me |
| But as it is, we live in the city |
| And everything stays in place |
| Instead we meet on the open sidewalk |
| And it’s well I know your face |
| We talk and talk, we tell the truth |
| There are no shadows here |
| But when I look into your eyes |
| I wonder what might have been here |
| Because if I had met you on some journey |
| Where would we be now? |
