Looking out at the heads of the people
Looking out from a window so high 
Lost the shape and time of things 
It's all a river just floating by 
I guess I earned a raft that couldn't sink 
Guess I learned about the missing link 
would forget to think 
You are alone there's nobody to see 
Swinging the blues is what ought to be 
You are all alone there's nobody to see 
Singing the blues is what ought to be 
Walking the streets 
And kicking your heels 
Loving the way the sidewalk feels 
There's a man in his forties passing you by 
There's a lady in lace catches my eye 
There's a melody in 3/4ths time 
There's a rhythm here and it's all mine 
Walking the streets 
Kicking heels 
Loving the way the sidewalk feels 
Holding your hand, lord 
I think I know 
Feeling my way in the river of flow
