| When I was a man And you were a woman We practiced ourselves Every day Every night A man with no outline Walking in the shadows A girl with a blurred face Leaning in the window Living our lives on the tides of this city Moving me to you Moving me through you Moving you to me Moving you through me When I was a man And you were a woman When I was a man And you were a woman We met in the arcades Where the people were meeting We danced down the avenues While the people were sleeping |

Living our lives
on the tides of this city Moving me to you Moving me through you Moving you to me Moving you through me When I was a man And you were a woman When I was a man And you were a woman I was a swimmer in a foggy bar I was trying to find some sea I was the sound of the furniture I was a silhouette for years She had some blossom on the tip of her tongue She was the surface of a trade She was a model for an echo dress Oh she looked so gold against the grey When I was a man And you were a woman When I was a man And you were a woman |
