Walking, Sitting, talking everywhere
People standing, please don't stare.
Running, jogging, around the park,
Please don't go there after dark.

Screaming, yelling, children shout,
Mothers queuing at the checkout.
Singing, dancing, laughing, crying
Babies born, people dying.

Talking on the mobile phone
Sat at home all alone,
Settling in the old armchair
I'm sure I should be elsewhere.

Daylight now is growing dim,
Chance of visitor now slim.
Locking up for the night,
Waiting, for tomorrows daylight..
