You take the skyway, high above the busy little one-way

In my stupid hat and gloves, at night I lie awake

Wonderin' if I'll sleep

Wonderin' if we'll meet out in the street



But you take the skyway

It don't move at all like a subway

It's got bums when it's cold like any other place

It's warm up inside

Sittin' down and waitin' for a ride

Beneath the skyway



Oh, then one day, I saw you walkin' down that little one-way

Where, the place I'd catch my ride most everyday

There wasn't a damn thing I could do or say

Up in the skyway



Skyway

Skyway (sky away)
