| Another hundred people just got off of the train
|
| And came up through the ground
|
| While another hundred people just got off of the bus
|
| And are looking around
|
| At another hundred people who got off of the plane
|
| And are looking at us
|
| Who got off of the train
|
| And the plane and the bus
|
| Maybe yesterday
|
| It’s a city of strangers
|
| Some come to work, some to play
|
| A city of strangers
|
| Some come to stare, some to stay
|
| And every day
|
| The ones who stay
|
| Can find each other in the crowded streets and the guarded parks
|
| By the rusty fountains and the dusty trees with the battered barks
|
| And they walk together past the postered walls with the crude remarks
|
| And they meet at parties through the friends of friends who they never
|
| Know
|
| «Do I pick you up or do I meet you there or shall we let it go?»
|
| «Did you get my message? |
| 'Cause I looked in vain.»
|
| «Can we see each other Tuesday if it doesn’t rain?»
|
| «Look, I’ll call you in the morning or my service will explain.»
