BEST LYRICS
of all-time.
#51
TAXI
“…She was gonna be an actress
& I was gonna learn to fly.
She took off to find the footlights
& I took off for the sky...
"Taxi" tells the story of an unexpected re-union of Harry and Sue. Years have passed since their last meet. Sue hails down a taxi cab and slowly recognizes the driver. He goes through the same process, while memories of their past as lovers flood his mind. 
Harry Chapin wrote "Taxi", a chart hit in 1972. It is a lengthy story song, running for almost 7 minutes. The single was lifted from Chapin's 'Heads And Tales' album.
As new songs are covered on this blog, a definitive version will be added to a spotify playlist. Find it and the other Caffé Latté playlists at:
