I met her on a midnight flight
From Mexico to San Delight
I saw her on a top floor bar
That glows flourescent from afar
She's real to me
I have a place for my feelings
Beneath purple curtained ceilings
And when I wanted to be free
I said to her to leave me be
She left alone
And she think that tomorrow holds
Things you remember from your past
I saw her on a railway station
As I passed some faded destination
I saw her smiling in a crowd
When we played some far off distant land
I felt so alone
And you thought you were taking risks
The chances you took would never last
She's real to me
I saw her in an alleyway
Street lights dim with frustration
She comes at night when I pray
And brings a moment of elation
I've seen her distance coming near
I almost want her to be here
But when she comes she disappears
I'd wait if I was patient
And you don't know what cages are
Cages don't always have bars
