CSilhouette seasons and Gfar-away reasons are aFll I have nowG  
CBorders can keep me if GRio will have me to Fdance and to droGwn
CTake to the harbor like saGils to set
FSleep for the evening in fGailed regret
CHold on to skylines of Gpale and coal
FClouds on horizons and Glove to grow old
On the way CI will goG  
Where the days Fleft to breathGe
Are not gonCe, are still Glong
FI am traveling onG  
CLove is a hazard in lGower Manhattan
You caFnnot escape, and musn't be saddGened
By mCen who abandon Gyour eyes for another's
There are always BFrazilian boys to discoverG  
CSet your sights straight now
GDon't forget pain
FDrink 'til tomorrow becomes yeGsterday
CThink of the shorelines you have yeGt to see
FMen who will hold you with eyes you Gbelieve
On the way CI will goG
