What is the meaning of this?
She certainly wanted to know.
A man on a bench
a step to the side
And surely those clouds will bring snow

She was returning to work
as many around her
And pondering this as she went
What was it to know
the brush of the snow
Have no one around but the ice and the snow
What thoughts could he have spent?

Yes, but she went on her way
walking away
walking away from the man on the bench
Would he have done the same for her?

The sidewalk was filled with lonely people
they surrounded each other in thought
They dreamed of sadness, sorrow, defeat
But none would touch an other.
None would touch another.
