THE MEANING Oct. 16/85 Karl Rigelhof

Do you have a way with words
Or do you have things to say
(But) they/that are never/seldom heard
Do you know the meaning
Or is it all absurd/
Did you get what you deserved

You just sit there
Watching the world go by
You don't care/
Without a care
Clocking the time that flies
As time flies

It is the enigma of our time
This cornucopia (that) we find
It is a stigma of the mind
And/as all our hopes are left behind

Do you have a way with things
And do you have a say in things
Each and every day (it) brings
Us closer to understanding
The meaning
Of why our hearts sting
And why our souls sing
