I’ve been talking to you
thru that damn white plastic
friendly-unfriendly telephone.
When I hear your voice
I feel a thrill right into my bones.
Because I found you
when I found the blues
walking lonely in Sheridan Square
trying hard, so hard to get loose!
Trying hard, so hard to get loose!
Then I told you about Rio de Janeiro
and some many other magic places
and I keep on seeing in your eyes
one thousand smiling faces!
Because I found you
when I found the blues
walking lonely in Sheridan Square
trying hard, so hard to get loose!
Trying hard, so hard to get loose!
But I keep on waiting for you down here
until you come back from endless spaces
to my arms.
The only thing I can offer besides love
are those freaky, distant charms.
Because, baby, I found you
when I found the blues
walking lonely in Sheridan Square
trying hard, so hard to get loose!
Trying hard, so hard to get loose!
Then the night gets darker in New York
and a thunderstorm arises.
How can I know what’s gonna happen
with our cat-styled electric lives?
Because, baby, I found you
when I found the blues
walking lonely in Sheridan Square
trying hard, so hard to get loose!
