Turnpike Ghosts

Cathy and Paul
Hitching a Ride
It’s six to three in New York

Hoping to find
What they can’t see
‘Cos it’s inside

Decades ago
Counting the cost
Worry how the time goes by
That’s how the time flies by

Suits in the street
Briefcase in hand
Walk don’t Walk
Going west

To Wall St or Madison
Processing dreams
Into cashflow

Boys from the town
Turn into men
Fighting a war they don’t understand

Ghosts on the turnpike
Lost and alone
Making meanwhile plans
Then going home

Cathy and Paul
Taking the Bus
Passing the pawn shops
And five and dimes

Out on the road
Each to their own
Fame and obscurity

Decades ago
counting the cars
Worry how the time goes by
That’s how the time flies by
