How many times Have I sat here How many times Has the wind whipped my hair around my face How many times Has the night engulfed me In its dark arms How many times Had this sidewalk been my #1 place to pray Pray that maybe next time it will work out How many times Have my tears wet this pavement How many times Have my worries swept away the dirt On your surface How many times Will I sit here again How many times Will the hurt trickle into the cracks On this cement How many times Will the rain cover the tears I've wept Like I did again tonight How much more pain How many silent comfort sessions Can I take?

Sidewalk Talk
How many times Have I sat here How many times Has the wind whipped my hair around my face How many times Has the night engulfed me In its dark arms How many times Had this sidewalk been my #1 place to pray Pray that maybe next time it will work out How many times Have my tears wet this pavement How many times Have my worries swept away the dirt On your surface How many times Will I sit here again How many times Will the hurt trickle into the cracks On this cement How many times Will the rain cover the tears I've wept Like I did again tonight How much more pain How many silent comfort sessions Can I take?
The sidewalk in front of my house has heard many of my worries and hurts. Me one (vain?) hope is that one day I'll find a person to replace the empty sidewalk.
