"Stanley" lyrics

"Stanley"

Waving in the frozen wind
With the flags that line the streets
Past warning signs of rat poison
Snow beneath our feet
Through the park under the bridge
Over the barbed wire fences
Into a tree to hang on with the leaves, alone defenseless

Walking along the waterfront for you
Is it alright? Is it alright without you?
We walk along the waterfront for you
Is it alright? Is it alright without you?

Sailing over buildings more grand in former times
Remembering the towers that once lived there in the sky
Weaving through the twisty blades, paper thin, I float away
Back home to the skeleton, we drink to warmer days
How long now have you been gone?
Seems like you just walked in
Here we go, we go
I can still see you waving back
Through the window

Walking along the waterfront for you
Is it alright? Is it alright without you?
Walking along the waterfront for you
Is it alright? Is it alright without you?

Is it alright? Is it alright without you?
Is it alright? Is it alright without you?
