And every day some go away

I have a Kodak Pony 135. The latest it could have been made is 1945.
I really have to figure out how to use it.




While another hundred people just got off of the bus

And are looking around

At another hundred people who got off of the plane

And are looking at us

Who got off of the train

And the plane and the bus

Maybe yesterday.

It's a city of strangers,

Some come to work, some to play.

A city of strangers,

Some come to stare, some to stay.

And every day
T
he ones who stay

an find each other in the crowded streets and the guarded parks,

By the rusty fountains and the dusty trees with the battered barks,

And they walk together past upholstered walls with the crude remarks.

And they meet at parties through the friends of friends who they never
know.
It's a city of strangers,

Some come to work, some to play.

A city of strangers,
Some come to stare, some to stay.
And every day
Some go away
Or they find each other in the crowded streets and the guarded parks,

By the rusty fountains and the dusty trees with the battered barks,

And they walk together past upholstered walls with the crude remarks.

And they meet at parties through the friends of friends who they never
know.
And another hundred people just got off of the train.

Another hundred people just got off of the train.
