When I was waiting for your phonecall
  The one that never came
  Like a man about to burst
  I was dying of thirst
    Though I will never fade
  Or get lost in this daze
  Though I will disappear
  Into the street parade
    It's not too hard to cry
  In these crying times
  I'll take a broken heart
  And take it home in parts
  But I will never fade
    I was in this place
  By the first church of the city
  I saw tears on the face
  The face of a visionary
    Though I will disappear
  To join the street parade
  Disappear and fade
  Into the street parade
