13. • Came in from a rainy Thursday - On the
avenue - Thought I heard you talking softly
- I turned on the lights, the TV - And the
radio - Still I can't escape the ghost of you -
What has happened to it all? - Crazy, some
are saying - Where is the life that I
recognize? - Gone away (C.A) But I won't
cry for yesterday - There's an ordinary
world - Somehow I have to find - And as I
try to make my way to the ordinary world I
will learn to survive…
