I met her on a midnight flight From Mexico to San Delight I saw her on a top floor bar That glows flourescent from afar She's real to me I have a place for my feelings Beneath purple curtained ceilings And when I wanted to be free I said to her to leave me be She left alone And she think that tomorrow holds Things you remember from your past I saw her on a railway station As I passed some faded destination I saw her smiling in a crowd When we played some far off distant land I felt so alone And you thought you were taking risks The chances you took would never last She's real to me I saw her in an alleyway Street lights dim with frustration She comes at night when I pray And brings a moment of elation I've seen her distance coming near I almost want her to be here But when she comes she disappears I'd wait if I was patient And you don't know what cages are Cages don't always have bars
