Your plane touches down

The captain catches your eye

Perched high and low

On wires watch you walk by

Your room's rearranged

Someone's been sleeping inside

On all your windows

To block out the fried chicken sign

Roll on Arte, roll on

Oh your heart is too good for this town

Your eyes cast through the glass

At my so sorry manniquin frown

In my arms I am strong
