lyrics

Saturday night light, in the garden
The Summer rain falls, on my old hat
Through the gate a man is walking
With a cane, I am singing

An old song , I learned in childhood
About the rain, and Saturday night life
Through the gate a man is walking
in night light, I am crying

—I stood on Queer Street, with my hands on my face.
The decision was mine but you always got your way,
On the day that I left, I rememberd your name .
On the day that you died, I was far away.

Through the gate a man is walking
With a cane, I am singing
Don’t cry T. don’t stop dreaming
Cause I’m a singer, I don’t stop singing.
