Working

Through skyscraper streets
Awash with fame
A zillion stars, amassed
Armies on the celestial plane
The night is clear
I call your name
You are so near
I call out your name

They move as one, mimicking
Passengers for the downtown train
The moment moved, passed on
They sadly dance to a quiet refrain
The night is clear
I call your name
You are so near
I call out your name

I hear the swirling wind
Tear at the husks of grain
I am but a country boy, caught
Out by an innocents stain
The night is clear
I call your name
I thought you were near
And, again I called your name
