Ballad Of The Lights Arthur Russell (Ft. Allen Ginsberg)

A young man sits on the bridge
After nightfall
And looks across the Hudson River to New Jersey
He wonders about life
And he wonders if he'll ever get old
He sees the lights
He wonders if they are talking to each other
And he wonders if they are talking to him
And he asks if they are

My mind settles down
On those lights from New Jersey
Why I chose New Jersey to look at, I don't know

Wеll one thing's for sure
I'm herе to see those lights
It doesn't matter, don't matter, no
Where I come from or where I go

Well what does it mean
Those lights
I can't resist the thought that they are twinkling to each other

Are they?
Are they?
