A Montreal Song 406 Lyrics

I turned on the TV war news

just to look and wonder why.

Thunder crashed and red flash-flowers

bloomed a nightmare in the sky.

So i went down to the cafe

just to string myself along.

On the way i found some riches --

played the jukebox, got this song.

While i sat there a ragged man came --

bummed a coffee, talked awhile.

Told me stories full of wonder --

left me laughing like a well-loved child
