(Two O Clock)

There I stand in the rain

on the corner, wearing

my wrist watch and

looking down at it

so often the reason

is I wait for you.

I don’t really want

to know the time.

I really don’t know what

time it is even when I

watch the watch.

Even if I stood in front

of one of those giant

faces with hands four

feet long I wouldn’t know

and I wouldn’t care what

time they told me

had come to pass.

I’d be waiting for you

without you and with you

I wouldn’t care what

time had come I’d be

waiting for you to come.

Oh, what time is it anyway?
