Written on the Subway Wall/Little Star Lyrics

Street corner bands, hot dog stands
Choosing sides for kick the can
Peel the years back, see it all
Written on the subway wall
Written on the subway wall

It's just a frozen yesterday
To make it more would take away
Remember the wonder of it all
Written on the subway wall
Written on the subway wall

Girl, you can't go back
No, I can't go back
Stayin' here right here with you

Cuban heels and pinstriped cars
Takin' Suzy to the church bazaar
Singin' desire in the hall
Written on the subway wall
Written on the subway wall

Basement lights and gangway fights
Hydrants flooding August nights
Those tender years I can recall
Written on the subway wall
Written on the subway wall

I feel so close and yet so far, girl
Where are you, little star
Twinkle, twinkle little star
How I wonder where you are
High above the clouds so high
Like a diamond in the sky

Pool halls in the afternoons
Transistors playing Elvis tunes
Sunday morning out playing stickball
Written on the subway wall
Written on the subway wall

Makin' out at matinees
We slowly went our separate ways
Friday night dance at Bronx Park Hall
Written on the subway wall
Written on the subway wall

Girl, you can't go back
No, you can't go back
Girl, I'm stayin' here with you
