the sun shines as i walk passed a fountain   the sidewalk lined with rosebushes   a concrete sculpture; a man somber in face   a mirror image of myself? it has my eyes      spending ten cents a day on dreams i'll never reach   on my knees again making promises i can't keep      the sun shines off my dime dropped in the water   that ripples in uniform on splash-down   looking up i feel the sun on my face   kneeling on the grass i envy every soul walking by      spending ten cents a day on dreams i'll never reach   on my knees again making promises i can't keep      still i play pretend, make believe   i can, i will   the sun's nothing special   just another star   just another star   only not that far   away
