Montreal Waltz Lyrics
i took the train from port henry to downtown montreal
i took the subway from downtown to here
i took the front steps to the front porch
and sat myself down
now i'm sitting
and waiting
here
i got my toothbrush i got my backpack
i got my new guitar
i got a head full of stories to tell
i got a hundred new families and a million new friends
i got everything, everything
and more
chorus:
there's the girl with the beautiful voice
and the boy with the beautiful smile
and the song that we sang all night
beautiful enough to wake up the sun
i got a dozen pink roses from a man in burlington
he was sitting and listening to me play
i said thanks for the flowers
i guess i'll see ya later
and i left him sitting there
chorus
today i got a letter from the girl with the voice
she said i had inspired her to sing
well she was singing on paper and it made me so happy
to be sitting and listening to her
chorus
i took the subway from downtown to here

and sat myself down
now i'm sitting

i got everything, everything
and more
there's the girl with the beautiful voice
and the boy with the beautiful smile
and the song that we sang all night
beautiful enough to wake up the sun
he was sitting and listening to me play

and i left him sitting there
she said i had inspired her to sing
well she was singing on paper and it made me so happy
to be sitting and listening to her

I can't believe that no one has commented on Devon! She rocks. This song reminds me of spring and frappacinos. And more than that, it seems to be a song about restlessness being resolved.
