When I read this mornings headlines I saw your
name
And it mentioned just two others that share your
fame
In another fourteen days you would have married
me
Now there's nothing but a cross out on route
23
(Tony, come on in)
[Interlude]
Well I walked that stretch of pavement where you
breathed you last
Run my fingers though the gravel and the broken
glass
They told me not to come here, but I had to
see
All that's left ' what was once mine on route
23
(J.W. . . )
(Tony)
Well I'm a goin' to your funeral then I'm goin'
away
Without you here beside me it's no use to stay
Everything I had ain't nothing but a memory
And a cross marks the spot out on route 23
