I Walk out on the Streets I used to Know so Well

An improved piece about coming home after being gone for awhile.

I Walk on all the Streets I used to Know so Well

Piano , singing, words, by Deborah Stokol, January 23, 2011.

I walk out on the streets

I look and see the places

I used to know so well.

Nothing looks the same,

but nothing’s changed

Maybe–

I’m the one who’s not the same now.

Years will pass,

and time will go

and I will come back–as you know–

but I won’t be the person

you expect to see.

There’s nothing wrong,

and you can place your bets

I can’t suspect the way

things will turn out to be.
