night song

Nina Simone

Summer,
Not a bit of breeze,
Neon signs are shining,
Through the tired trees,
Lovers,
Walking to and fro,
Everyone has someone,
And a place to go
Now listen,
Hear the cars go past,
They don't even see me,
Flying by so fast,
Moving,
Going who knows where,
Only thing i know is,
I'm not going there
Where do you go,
When you feel that your brain is on fire,
Where do you go when you don't even know
What it is you desire,
Listen -
Laughter everywhere,
Hear it -
Life is in the air,
As the night comes
And the town awaits,
Sound o' children calling
And the squeal of brakes,
Music
But a lonely sound
When you can't help wond'ring
Where do i belong
