Don't over look this because it is from a musical. The lyric,
"And the street lamp light
Fills the gutter with gold"
has changed the way I've written since. The lyrics are simple, clear, authentic and true.
MY TIME OF DAY
My time of day is the dark time
A couple of deals before dawn
When the street belongs to the cop
And the janitor with the mop
And the grocery clerks are all gone.
When the smell of the rainwashed pavement
Comes up clean, and fresh, and cold
And the streetlamp light
Fills the gutter with gold
That's my time of day
My time of day
And you're the only doll I've ever wanted to share it with me.
My Time of Day
