Story behind the song

see description.

Lyrics

I		Sitting alone.
		Rain-soaked downtown.
		His favorite bench.
		Cold, soggy ground.

II		One they forgot
		In their race against time.
		For all those who stared,
		(If he just had a dime. . .)

Ch		Hey!!  You doin' OK?
		Could someone give him a hand?
		I'm running late for a meeting.
		(You understand.)

Break

Ch

III		A lady sat down.
		He managed to smile.
		She was partly invisible
		And stayed for a while.

IV		When she arose,
		She said, come with me
		There's a higher, new world
		Where it's cool to be free.
Ch

Br		In this new silence,
		He tried hard to yell,
		But those passing by ~
		Were unable to tell.

		One they forgot.
		In their race against time.
		For all those who stared,
		(If he only had a dime. . .)
