| [00:09.61] | Elope with me Miss Private and we'll sail around the world |
| [00:14.12] | I will be your Ferdinand and you my wayward girl |
| [00:18.63] | How many nights of talking in hotel rooms can you take? |
| [00:22.97] | How many nights of limping 'round on pagan holidays? |
| [00:27.17] | Oh elope with me in private and we'll set something ablaze |
| [00:32.22] | A trail for the devil to erase |
| [00:36.67] | San Francisco's calling us, the Giants and Mets will play |
| [00:41.07] | Piazza, New York catcher, are you straight or are you gay? |
| [00:45.54] | We hung about the stadium, we've got no place to stay |
| [00:50.08] | We hung about the tenderloin and tenderly you tell |
| [00:54.12] | About the saddest book you ever read |
| [00:56.88] | It always makes you cry |
| [00:59.36] | The statue's crying too and well he may |
| [01:03.87] | I love you I've a drowning grip on your adoring face |
| [01:08.25] | I love you my responsibility has found a place |
| [01:12.77] | Beside you and strong warnings in the guise of gentle words |
| [01:17.32] | Come wave upon me from the family why not that's absurd |
| [01:21.49] | "You'll take care of her, I know it, you will do a better job" " |
| [01:26.57] | Maybe, but not what she deserves |
| [01:31.14] | Elope with me Miss Private and we'll drink ourselves awake |
| [01:35.49] | We'll taste the coffee houses and award certificates |
| [01:39.98] | A privy seal to keep the feel of 1960's style |
| [01:44.48] | We'll comment on the decor and we'll help the passer by |
| [01:48.75] | And at dusk when work is over we'll continue the debate |
| [01:53.59] | In a borrowed bedroom virginal and spare |
| [01:58.26] | The catcher hits for .318 and catches every day |
| [02:02.65] | The pitcher puts religion first and rests on holidays |
| [02:07.18] | He goes into cathedrals and lies prostrate on the floor |
| [02:11.78] | He knows the drink affects his speed he's praying for a doorway |
| [02:15.80] | Back into the life he wants and the confession of the bench |
| [02:20.83] | Life outside the diamond is a wrench |
| [02:25.55] | I wish that you were here with me to pass the dull weekend |
| [02:29.94] | I know it wouldn't come to love, my heroine pretend |
| [02:34.57] | A lady stepping from the song we love until this day |
| [02:39.27] | You'd settle for an epitaph like "Walk Away, Renee" |
| [02:43.07] | The sun upon the roof in winter will draw you out like a flower |
| [02:48.38] | Meet you at the statue in an hour |
| [02:52.93] | Meet you at the statue in an hour |
