Meanwhile

Lyrics: Meitar Miriam Perez/Akiva Breuer Music: Meitar Miriam Perez/Akiva Breuer/Aviram Amsalem Another building with too many floors The yellow windows are like open doors A trumpet player, playing for his muse Can’t tell her he loves her so he plays the blues Meanwhile
The neighbors have a newborn that is crying The mother tried to sing his favorite song Waiting for her man to come back home Can’t bare it alone she doesn’t know what’s wrong Meanwhile
While looking at strangers I fell into a dream
A family picture hangs up on the wall It tells a story of before the war A man that looks the same from the outside Minus the smile plus a troubled mind Meanwhile
While looking at strangers I fell into a dream
It's getting late the Parkers sit for dinner The menu offers fish and bread and old age Their life played out exactly as they planned Yet it's never enough Oh what a shame And who’s to blame Oh what a shame Meanwhile
