In A Windowpane

I looked into a windowpane

Last evening in a city far away

I was feelin' sad and blue

I wondered then if I should really stay

Wanting someone to be with me in the light of this uncertain time

Waiting by the window for the man inside

To please make up his mind

Will you be one who passed through but never saw

Never knowing never feeling anything

Will you live your whole life through never knowing what to do

Will you be one who passed through but never saw

I walked along the roadway to a fountain

Where lovers come to meet

A hobo walked up to me, I could tell

He didn't have enough to eat

He said, "Good sir you look so kind

And though the years have stripped me to the bone

It seems I am the better man

For in this place I've never walked alone

Will you be one who passed through but never saw

Never knowing never feeling anything

Will you live your whole life through never knowing what to do

Will you be one who passed through but never saw

"Where will you be, my friendly, when your

Telephone ain't givin' out no calls

And when the seasons come to haunt you

Will you still find springtime in the fall

And when you're on your island

Will you wave at every ship that passes by

And will you feed a hungry man

I thank you, sir,

Now I'll just say goodbye"

Don't you be one who passed through but never saw

Never knowing never feeling anything

Will you live your whole life through never knowing what to do

Will you be one who passed through but never saw

Will you live your whole life through never knowing what to do

Will you be one who passed through but never saw
