about

"It vaguely crossed my mind that I was no different from the other man; although Pura was waiting for me at home, despite her presence I too was alone, because in her mind she was already slowly drifting away. I was just as tired of my day’s labour, just as desolate and dirty as the invisible man. I, too, could see the fading light; but it was then that I remembered I had met someone. Someone who might become the person I had been looking for, for so long. There was a gleam of hope, a beam of light in the approaching dusk. So, I went home to write and record this:"

People © 2017 Malcolm Duff & Maristela da Silva

Look at all the people
Wondering where to go
What they might be missing
What they’ll never know

Look at all the people
As they're passing by
Ask the same old questions:
Can you tell me why?

Is it fate or just a date?
A mistake I made before?
Look at all the people
Standing by the shore

They're all someone, like me and you
Where's that someone, who's lonely too?

What will my tomorrow bring?
Will it be good or bad?
Will it let me smile and sing?
Or make me blue and sad?

The secret’s very simple
But understood by few:
Angels past watch over us
No matter what we do

So look at all the people
Only passing through
Even old they may find gold
And meet someone just like you.

Someone, somewhere, just like you.
