54321/Wave Songtext
von Patti Smith Group

Hi. Hi. I was running you after you for a long time
I was watching you for...
Actually I′ve watched you for a long time
I like to watch you when you're walking back and forth on the beach
And the way your, the way your cloth looks
I like I like to see the edges
The bottom of it get all wet
When you′re walking near the water there

It's real nice to talk to you
I didn't I-I-I-I


How are you? How are you?
I saw I saw you from your balcony window
And you were standing there waving at everybody
It was really great because there was about a billion people there
But when I was waving to you
The way your face was
It was so, the way your face was
It made me feel exactly like we′re
It′s not that you were just waving to me
But that we were we were waving to each other
Really it was really wonderful
I really felt happy
I really made me happy
And
Um
I
I just wanted to thank you
Because

You, you really really you made me feel good and
Oh, I, it's nothing
Well I′m just clumsy
No, it's just a Band-Aid
No, it′s OK
Oh no, I'm always doing
Something′s always happening to me
Well
I'll be seeing you
Good-bye
Bye


Good-bye sir
Good-bye papa
Wave thou art pretty
Wave thou art high
Wave thou art music
Wave thou art why
Wave thou art pretty
Wave thou art high
Wave to the city
Wave wave good-bye
Wave thou art high
Wave thou art pretty
Wave to the children
Wave good-bye
