Music: EEOH & Michi | Lyrics: Thommy

she sat there all night on the bare bench
waiting for no bus to take her
she didn't seem freezing under her purple cloak
her long black hair had a wonderful shine

and the street slowed down 
snowflakes conquered the lanes
happy families passing by 
on their way home from relations and friends

    and the bus stop sign in the fading light said
    "to the best gift of all time"

no one took ever notice of the woman
when a bus came to halt, 
the driver offered “lady, it’s cold, the last chance tonight”
she smiled and said gently 
"thank you for asking, but I'm expecting some guests here tonight"

    and the bus stop sign in the fading light said
    "to the best gift of all time"

and her guests they were coming
from somewhere and nowhere
the sad and the lonely, the forgotten, the lost 
and the misunderstood
they crowded the shed and sat next to her

they told her their lives, bitter stories, some funny
all voices confused, laconic or loud
but the lady talked and listen to them all at the same 
as there was no one else
‘till her guests left the shed in the dawn
all wearing a quiet and happy smile

    and the bus stop sign in the bright morning sun said
    the is the best gift of all time

‘cause in the end we are all unspeakably alone
and attention is more than everything else 
an act to bond us lost elements in this scattered world
in this scattered, crazy world

attention, attention, attention
we are lost elements in this scattered, crazy world 
all lonely in a scattered world, crazy world

I can't remember the town where this happened
I can't remember the language they spoke
I can't remember the religion they prayed for
it was just a wonderful night of chances and hope 
of chances and hope

in a place sometime, somewhere and somehow pretty
