Heard that someone put music to this poem and it was played on the radio? But I was on the road somewhere across the USA, so I never heard it.

hey, come a running,
you've called it trucking
but i know you
better ,
hey, you're going somewhere,
and you say, you'll know
when you get there,
ah! but i know you
better
you're going nowhere,

now i'm a-coming,
just to reach
to where you'll be
a-passing
but, you must stop,
stop going nowhere,
ah! please stop,
try coming somewhere
somewhere with me
somewhere with me
then if we're together,
and you're hoping
for bright weather
of a future kind
to come ,
i'll be a running ,
and i'm sorry,
fore, it's nowhere
that is this end,

yes , i'm sitting, for
your coming,
knowing, you'll
be going ,
and, just asking ,
for a touching as
you pass,
it's a stopping ,
while you're running

now you know we're both
nowhere, with nowhere
left to go,
just together, for a second
i am waiting

- jude (1972)
