Lyrics

Fortune Street
Lyrics & Music by A. Moock ©2007 Moockshake Music, ASCAP

China doll in Chinatown
Gets knocked up and settles down
Staring out the window at what might've been
Downstairs on the street below
A woman's walking by soft and slow
She'd give anything for a child of her own
Troubles meet on Fortune Street
All together all alone

A suited man in a subway car
Riding today 'cause someone stole his car
Looks around at the people he's riding with
Homeless men and working stiffs
A teenage girl with two young kids
And he can't remember where it was he was going
Lost and found on a train downtown
All together all alone

Pastures of plenty when we played the tunes
Pastures are empty now the fields are ruined
And every man goes home to his own house
But I hear the song of the whippoorwill
The cuckoo calls I follow still
I never could shut that door so well
Fertile land one man band
All together all alone

There's a space between your heart and mine
A little breach along the borderline
That can't be crossed by anyone
The private smile the secret stare
The moving lips of a silent prayer
Everyone keeps something for themselves
Bound and free you and me
All together all alone
