Christina Singleton's best contribution to the fold thus far, this extremely quiet recording mostly features her alone on vocals, joined eventually by Wayne Brooks' lonely sax. The acclaimed video was deceptively simple, featuring Singleton's unadorned face, slowly pulling back to reveal her alone on a deserted street; the single got to #24. The song was brilliantly sequenced as the first song in the nightly second set on the 1994 tour, opening with Singleton and Parker alone while the band came out to join them.
I jumped into
The empty pool
With you
With you
Can't stand
Tonight when we wander
We wander alone
Tonight
Tonight we wander alone
Just like yesterday
Just like tomorrow
Hitler sank the battleship
I was captain
You were there
You touched me
There
There
That was yesterday
Ghandi shot the sheriff
I was the deputy
You were in the padded room
That was tomorrow.
