Conversation (BBC Radio 1 Club Session 19/4/71)

Old folks and young folks

Kinfolks and common folks

Everybody's talking

Nobody wants to know

Being a young man, I feel something's missing

There's two sides to a conversation

Ain't nobody listening

Leaving the places and faces

That figured in my life

I can open my eyes

On the other side

Being aware of the space and the distance

There's two sides to a conversation

Ain't nobody listening

From the east side to the west

There's a light that shines on me

And I find it shines the best

When there is a point to see

Hey mister, say, don't you think something's missing?

There's two sides to a conversation

That needs someone to listen
