I HAVE BEEN ONE AQUANTTED WITH THE NIGHT
I HAVE WALKED OUT IN RAIN AND BACK IN RAIN
I HAVE OUT WALKED THE FURTHEST CITY LIGHT
I HAVE LOOKED DOWN THE SADDEST CITY LANE
I HAVE PASSES BY THE WATCHMAN ON HIS BEAT
AND DROPPED Y EYESUNWILLING TO EXPLAIN


I HAVE STOOD AND STOPPED THE SOUND OF FEET
WHEN FAR AWAY AN INTERRUPTED CRY
CAME OVER HOUSES FROM ANOTHER STREET
BUT NOT TO CALL ME BACK OR SAY FARE WELL
AND FURTHER STILL AT AN UNEARTHLY HEIGHT
ONE LUMINARY CLOCK AGAINST THE SKY

PROCLAIMED THE TIME WAS NEITHER WRONG OR RIGHT
I HAVE BEEN ONE AQUAINTED WITH THE NIGHT!!!
