Standing under an overpass in the rain
Looks like we've been stranded once again
And there is not a lonelier sound that the wheels on the ground above
The cars pass by and so does a normal life
And why are we left behind?
As our dreams die
We got so much more in common with the corner dwellers
Sitting next to a brand new friend of mine, shares his fifth of jim with me,
Got a twinkle in his eye
Beats the hell out of everyones cold stare, looking but not really there,
But we catch the unprepared, sometimes
It's him and me, invisible ghosts of the street
Every grin we share is like a prayer committed to the song we sing
And it goes
Give me hope
I've got nowhere else to go
I don't know
If I can wake another day
In the cold
On my own
Give me hope
