Long Tall Sally in a Black Dress

There's been a lot of tears since the golden years
When there was hope for something new
And the young girl's eyes could reflect desire
In a million shades of blue

Now we all walk 'round and we make no sound
And we all look just the same
And we all dream when we watch the screen
Of a place where we could change

And there's long tall Sally in a black dress
And a pair of worn out shoes
There's a lot of tears in a hundred years
It's like 2062

Well it's a long, long way to the hip hooray
That you used to know so well
And you didn't care if people saw you stare
And your friends would never tell

And now she spends her time
On an endless climb to the top of the endless tree
Where heaven is found to be sold by the pound
To the likes of you and me

And there's long tall Sally in a black dress
And a pair of worn out shoes
There's a lot of tears in a hundred years
It's like 2062

Through all the tears since the golden years
In which she hoped for something new
And Sally's eyes could reflect desire
In a million shades of blue

Now Sally sits there dreaming
Of a thousand better days
Sally still remembers
A thousand better ways
Now the streets are filled with paper
And the rivers all run dry
And the long lost dream of the world that's clean
Is draining from her eye

And there's long tall Sally in a black dress
And a pair of worn out shoes
There's a lot of tears in a hundred years
It's like 2062

There's long tall Sally in a black dress
And a pair of worn out shoes
There's a lot of tears in a hundred years
It's like 2062

And there's long tall Sally in a black dress
A pair of worn out shoes
There's a lot of tears in a hundred years
It's like 2062

There's long tall Sally in a black dress
A pair of worn out shoes
There's a lot of tears in a hundred years
It's like 2062
