High above the heat of a summer new york street
An out-of-work musician plays a solo saxophone
Hes a preacher and a teacher
And he stands up all alone
Stranded in the dark of a vision in the park
A poet in his madness tries to find another line
And hes losing and hes using
And he says hes doing fine
And they look from such a height
That somehow its all right
Theyre talking back to the night
Its all that they can do
Talking back to the night
Its how they make it through
If you listen you can hear them
Their voices draw you near them
Theyre talking back to the night for you
Something seems to take every dime the man can make
His dream is getting smaller and he wonders where to turn
And hes trying hard to make it
And hes trying not to burn
Woman never minds, pulls the shade and draws the blinds
She takes him in the darkness where the loneliest can feed
She gives him all she has to
And its no more than he needs
Steve Winwood (born Stephen Lawrence Winwood on May 12, 1948) is a legendary British musician known for his diverse career spanning rock, blues, soul, and jazz. He began playing music at a young age, joining The Spencer Davis Group at the age of 16. With them, he achieved great success in the 1960s with hits like "Gimme Some Lovin'". After the group disbanded, Winwood joined Traffic, a psychedelic band that saw him compose and perform hits like "Low Spark of High Heeled Boys" and "Feelin' Alright".
