Washington Square sing and play along

I sold my piano.

It couldn't come with me.

I locked up my bedroom

and I walked out into the air.

When nothing I needed

was left there behind me,

I walked out through the shadows

of Washington Square.

I wandered the highways

from Dublin to Berkeley,

and I heard the songbirds way of Balley Poreen.

But I loved like a fountain and it left me with nothing,

just mem'ries of walk citing through Washington Square.

Now I live in the shad ows

where light is electric

and time is a number way that rests on a wall.

And I nobody knows me,

my friends and my family

are as far from this city as Washington Square.

Now I live in the shad

So cover this warm I'm traveling homeward to Washington Square,

Washington Square,

Washington Square.
