Conversation Piece

I took this walk to ease my mindTo find out what's gnawing at methat I've spent a lot of time in educationIt all seems so long agoI'm a thinker, not a talkerI've no-one to talk to, anywayI can't see the roadfor the rain in my eyesAhhh,ahhh,ah,ah.I live above the grocers store,owned by an AustrianAnd he jokes about his broken English,tries to be a friend to meBut for all my years of reading conversation,I stand without a word to sayI can't see the bridgefor the rain in my eyesAhhh,ahhh,ah,ah.And the world is full of lifeFull of folk who don't know meWhile the light that shines above the grocers storeinvestigates my face so rudelyAnd my essays lying scattered on the floorFullfil their needs just by being theremy voice sticks inside my throatI'm invisible and dumb,no-one will recall meAnd I can't see the waterthrough the tears in my ey-y-yes
