People that I meet and pa**
In the city's broken roar,
Faces that I lose so soon
And have never found before,
Do you know how much you tell
In the meeting of our eyes,
How ashamed I am, and sad
To have pierced your poor disguise?
Secrets rushing without sound
Crying from your hiding places—
Let me go, I cannot bear
The sorrow of the pa**ing faces.
—People in the restless street,
Can it be, oh can it be
In the meeting of our eyes
That you know as much of me?
