In Hong Kong city 
At a chowder stand down from Kowloon 
Met a junkie into syncronicity 
He'd made all the phases of the spoon 
He said mister I am able 
To map the Cairo water table 
But nowhere on my charts 
Does it say how to mend a heart 
In old Genoa 
Behind some dump truck drivers door 
There was a lady who was dressed up 
Like Marlene before the war 
Opinion held that she was ice 
Oh but you could glimpse paradise 
If you leaned close in the dark 
And you told her how to mend a heart 
Wait for all the lights, 
All the light in town to go out 
Avoid looking in the mirror 
Turn the car and go south 
Follow the Pole Star 
Until she changes her petticoat 
Check in to a desert motel 
And let the dam in the waters go broke 
Some nameless project 
Out by the twentieth zone 
We got a leaper gonna jump for it 
He's paid about all he was owing 
He said I'm telling you the truth 
I would not be on this roof 
If I hadn't seen some kissing in the park 
Or known how to mend a heart
