Watson T. Browne - Searching for a star Lyrics

Searching for a star

A cold man, in a cold air city
An hallucinated warmth of memories of years long gone.
I´m looking here, I´m looking there,
I looked almost everywhere,
But there´s a mist before me I can´t see.
I´m sitting at the bar, I´m talking to a man,
Who says he knows almost everything that there is to know.

I said mister, why you´re here, why you sitting at this bar,
When the people are on the air searching for a star,
When the people they are on the air searching for a star.

It was a cold and lonely month in a lonly air city
An hallucinated love in the heart
Of the lonely materialistic people.
November 74´, such a long time ago
And I were doing where materially can´t see
And I´m still sitting at this bar,
But now I´m talking to a star,
Who said you know my old friend,
I´m not from a far

I said mister, why you´re here, why you sitting at this bar,
When the people on the air searching for a star,
And the people they are on the air searching for a star.
