General Lafayette! You Are Not Alone

Are you sleeping all day long

Do you need someone

To walk the rooms of your old house

Like thunder in the halls

Just like you always longed for

Friends where have you gone now

I'm lost in the crowd

Somewhere way out past the waves, the lights, the notes, the kids, the cities

And I heard six bells to call the fading day

As twilight fell on lafayette street like it always does

Oh each voice ring out loud and I

Echo through your house

Don't be afraid to sing along, to sing alone you are

You know I always have

And late two birds outside my window

I can hear their wings

I hope you understand it is much easier this way

And I know how hard it is to change, I know, I know

I see you on the avenue still riding buses like a ghost

Do you long for me

Ringing all your bells and burning down

Is it easier

Lost inside the season is the will to sleep

Do you long for me

Ringing all your bells and burning down

Do you sleep all day

Wondering if I'm ever gonna finally come around

Do you long for more

Ringing all your bells and burning down

Is it easier

Lost inside the season is the will to sleep

Do you long for me

Ringing all your bells and burning down

Do you sleep all day

Wondering if I'm ever gonna finally come around

And someone said I should never betray your name
