I don’t know what to say,

I’m stumbling lost in a foreign land

you’re talking in a strange language

but your tone I understand


(chorus)

you show me how close a friend can be

you work it out when I don’t have a clue

I once was blind but now I see


everybody seems a little mystified

in a tunnel not sure which way to go

the streets are quiet in the dawn

there’s a turn-around, a new glow


(chorus)


every piano note you play

strikes home right around the heart

it’s the language both of us understand

it sings out clear, it’s street smart


you show me how close a friend can be

you work it out when I don’t have a clue

I once was blind but now I see


things definitely are looking up

out along the ancient ragged coast.

the sky turns crimson and gold

our love will follow.

you show me how close a friend can be

you work it out when I don’t have a clue

I once was blind but now I see

  • I like this version RC. The images feel a little clearer, and the whole a bit tighter.

    Good job on revising it. No reason to expect it to be perfect first go.

  • @RainyDayMan ain't that the truth?! (no reason to for perfect first go)! Amen!
