Franco Battiato
It's Five O' Clock
It's five o' clock 
and i walk 
through the empty streets.
Thoughts fill my head
but then still no one speaks to me
my mind takes me back 
to the years 
that have passed me by
It is so hard to believe
that it's me that i see
in the window pane
it is so hard to believe 
that all this is the way
that it has to be
It's five o' clock 
and i walk 
through the empty streets.
The night is my friend 
and in him i find sympathy
and so i go back to the years
that have past me by
It is so hard to believe
that it's me that i see
in the window pane
it is so hard to believe 
that all this is the way
that it has to be
It's five o' clock 
and i walk 
through the empty streets.
the night is my friend 
and in him i find sympathy.
He gives me day gives me hope 
and a little dream too.
