last night, went out
and looked all around and fell about
laughing we were
suddenly realising,
that you had taken me somewhere else

i rush for my tube
on my worn city feet
from the rich to the poor
husky buskers
and not such a sweet bird in a restaurant door

friends come and go
occupying my affections
others disappear in the light
give us some direction
and we shall be alright

i have got your attention
as you are passing my direction
but it is only going to be a brief moment
i will not have your full affection
