 WORLD OF PAIN  by Gail Collins and Felix Pappalardi








Outside my window is a tree.
Outside my window is a tree.
There only for me.
And it stands in the gray of the city,
No time for pity for the tree or me.

  There is a world of pain
  In the falling rain
  Around me.

Is there a reason for today?
Is there a reason for today?
Do you remember?
I can hear all the cries of the city,
No time for pity for a growing tree.
