Hello Janice & Bud,

Thank you!
Introspective it is in a way. That's the kind of writing I usually do. I'm pretty much unable to write "direct" lyrics ;-)
I usually start out with humming whatever word comes into mind (unconsciously) on an existing arrangement. Sometimes it makes sense, sometimes it's total cr**p.
One of the advantages here is that the words that Do make sense also suit the songs rhythm. I also like to write from several perspectives.
In this case, in this song, there are three different perspectives:
me (the city boy who sleeps all day)
the man (the man that comes down in the middle of the street)
the woman (in the store)

These perspectives were sheer coincidence. When I wrote this song I was looking for words that sounded "good", ha ha.
It wouldn't be the first time that I found out, only months later, what my song was really about. The unconscious brain can be pretty powerful in songwriting.

Anyway, thanks again for your loyal support.
It's always appreciated!

Regards,
Rob
