Please listen to the song written and sung by Sting. Music by the late Kenny Kirkland.God bless you Ken...

How, like the fall
To be gone in a day
Just as the leaves turned gold
I was drawn to the sound
That the wind carried down
From an open window pane
An oh, how like a song
Or a sad melody
To linger long after the end
And the harmony rings
With the promise of spring
On a Brooklyn street

How, like the fall
To be gone in a day
Just as the trees had turned gold
I was drawn to this sound
That some fingers had found
But now the winter seems to stay too long
How like a song
Or a sad melody
To linger long after it's gone
Let the harmony ring
With the promise of spring
On a Brooklyn street

How, like the spring
To return in a day
When everything seems to be new
But here's someone who's hoping
The window is open
On that Brooklyn street again
And oh, how like a song
Or a sweet melody
To linger long after it's gone
Let the harmony ring
With the promise of spring

On a Brooklyn street...

Author's Note

After a particularly bad day I come home and question my very existence in this life and my purpose in it. I hear this song on the radio and then look for it on YouTube and replay it three or four more times straight. I realize only in this life, this time and place, do you hear something so beautiful
