Lincoln Avenue

I’m living on Lincoln Ave
Not Lincoln St, Not Lincoln Rd
The pigeons at the lakefront
Dogs are running, girls are biking
And sun shines my way
I made a fresh coffee
Wish you were here when I woke up in the morning
You know alarm clock never works for me
You see the eagle flying?
You see the flowers blooming?
Even a night person like me
Can’t resist the morning on Lincoln Ave
Good morning
Baby

I’m waiting on you to come on home
My darling, I’m all alone
Another traffic jam
But I’ve got the songs we sang along
I don’t mind the driving
Overtime is perfectly fine
But when I come on home to this dark room
Without you my darling
I just can’t get away from missing you
Baby

I could go for running by the street
Or go to Newburgh for ice-cream
Go for shopping for nothing
Or Starbucks for a coffee
Tried to keep me busy and crazy
With work and stuff and party
But the solitude and emptiness
Won’t be simply filled without you my darling
My darling
You’ve come on home
Oh, it’s meant to be

Now you’re here together with me
We go down to Lincoln Ave
Did you see the baby screaming?
Did you see the cat yawning?
We would hold our hands
In the warm summer breeze
We would live our lives
Like no one else
On this pretty and busy Lincoln Ave
