Taxi Cab lyrics

Unsentimental Traveling around Sure of myself Sure of it now You were standing there so close to me Like the future was supposed to be In the aisles of the grocery And the blocks uptown I remember, remember it well But if I'd forgotten, could you tell?

In the shadow of your first attack I was questioning and looking back You were standing on another track Like a real aristocrat
