I was circling Gramercy park   In a square of buildings and shadows   The flowers hanging off the windows   It occurred to me      There's a fence surrounding your heart   That a golden key wouldn't open   The lock on the gate's been broken   Many years it seems      I thought I had a hold on myself   But you came along   Then you had come and gone      It was not the touch of my hand   But the crushing weight of your finger   The chill of a long December   And a lie untold      Well I know where Lexington ends   But I won't waste my life walking circles   Your warm summer reds now purple   Like a dying rose      I thought i had a hold on myself   Then you came along   Yeah you had come and gone   You had come and gone      I was circling Gramercy park   In a square of buildings and shadows
