I walked alone today
through dismal rains
and misery haze
alone ....alone
On past graffiti walls
half paralyzed
down cold alleyways
alone ...alone
Strangers pass by on their way
I'm walking alone in the rain
On past the paper stand
the coffee shops
the cafes and bars
I go ... I go
I've got nowhere to be
but far away from
the shadows of home
alone ....alone
And nothing will get in my way
I'm walking alone in the rain.
Here in my overcoat
I stop beneath the
shop's overhang
unknown ...unknown
I watch the people in
the stations waiting
by the railways
unknown...unknown
I watch them get on to the train
standing alone in the rain
A true hidden treasure of a song writer. This gent has been capturing songs in demo form on old tape recorders since the 80s. . . and he's still capturing his magic sounds in his secret basement. Damien Youth
