A PENNY FOR YOUR THOUGHTS

Yesterday near Washington Square
I found a penny on the street
between the cobblestones it was lying there
just a penny not a nickel not a dime
but it hit me of my feet
pushed me away into another time

When I was young, long time ago,
living in a very small city,
everything so clean and pretty,
except one man, you got to know.

He ist walking down the streets
day after day the same old way
his eyes are always fixed on his feed.
He is looking for something he lost, they say.

He is speaking to himself constantely,
making little small funny sounds
maybe words, maybe numbers, that he counts
in a certain kind of melody.

He is crazy, he´s a fool (as) you see,
walking dayly up and down the streets for years
but they let him go and let him be,
with his walkin in there eyes, and his sounds in there ears.

If I know what you are thinking right now,
if you know exactely what I am thinking, how
could we ever be together, knowing,
what in our brains is flowing?
No secrets nothing to discover,
made of glass and no adventure´s lover...
(Lyrics by Alfred Gulden)
