Avenues

avenues they speak my name as i wander my merry way and i don't know just where it is i'm walking to getting there maybe all i ever know this man he said to me boy you better find a direction soon well now show me your mind point it's knowledge in a line and i'll follow it straight and true but just allow me a little room to waver along the way only then sir can i follow you i've given myself to the wind with wind i will fly lady standing on a street corner there's a plastic bag in her hand she says i need this to carry my family jewels and at night i see her hail a taxi cab a taxi cab to the stars i can see i can see we've shared similar scars she's given herself to the wind with wind she will fly and Benny down at the drugstore tells me of all his memories tells me of snow this high and goosebumps on his neck i say hey Benny i'm too young man too young to have remembered that he says son you're so much older than you look he says old soul my young man now don't you forget just where you've been i'm an old soul i'm still a young man i cannot forget just where it is i been been did i tell you about my friend that died? i watched him should have been the one that washed him clean spirit left his body and floated up in the sky he waved goodbye last breath left his body with a sigh he's given himself to the wind with wind he will fly these avenues they speak my name as i wander my merry way sunlight reflects off mirrored windows i can see i can see blue around the grey [i love these avenues]
