Diamonds of silvery rain in the fountains

Watching the moonlight reflect off the river..

beside where the trains cross the bridge and

slow down.
Abm E Eb
Trains with white letters on black iron sides..

and wild rushing water that all rolls away.
Dbm Eb Dbm Eb
And Little Miss Someone does not want to stay.

Everyone's moving, with places to go..

Yesterday's kiss will be cold by tomorrow, as

campfires of midnight dissolve in the darkness.

The room is deserted, the blinds have been drawn,

Little Miss Someone has packed up and gone.

Fast moving cars disappear down the highway,

with signs that say, hitch-hikers..do not disturb..
Dbm Eb Dbm Eb
Mr. Zero looks quietly up from the curb.

Morning has faded, and shadows have grown, and Little

Miss Someone is on her way home.
Abm E Eb
Mr. Zero stands watching, her plane flies above,
Dbm Eb Abm Bb
and with frost-bitten hands waves goodbye to his love.

Mr. Zero is wrapping his jacket around him,

speaking kind words that should have been said long ago..
