Silent as a willow tree
This road moves like a, a river to me
Sun goes down on Wisdom Street
Break the glass and throw away the key
Somewhere out where the fates collide (collide)
Cigarettes and candlelight
I sit here in the lone cafe
So stripped away (oh, oh)
So stripped away
Ah, huh:
Huh:huh
Oh, ah, oh, ah
Everybody knows
Im your street corner Romeo
Everybody knows
Youre my Juliet in rags
And Charlie Parker loves me
Sit with me forever more
Is the draft too cold when they open door
Seem to me whenever youre drunk
And well drift away, drift away (drift away)
Ah, huh:
Huh:huh
Oh, ah, oh, ah
Everybody knows (everybody)
Im your street corner Romeo (oh, yeah)
Everybody knows
Youre my Juliet in rags
And Charlie Parker loves me (ooh:)
I feel your heart beat underneath my skin
Like a New Orleans night
But the rain cant get in
So red-hot dig the beat up underneath a cool, cool night
And the glass moonlight of spring
Everybody knows (ooh:)
Im your street corner Romeo (oh, yeah)
Everybody knows (know, yeah)
Youre my Juliet in rags
Everybody knows (everybody knows)
Im your street corner Romeo, yes, I am
(Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Everybody knows (yeah)
Youre my Juliet in rags
And Charlie Parker loves me (ooh:)
Everybody knows
(Im listenin to ya, Charlie)
Im your street corner Romeo
(Bird is fly high tonight)
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
Charlie Parker loves me
Everybody knows [yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah]
(Fly away, Charlie)
Im your street corner Romeo-aca
