Loneliness
|
Is a place that I know well
|
It's the distance between us
|
And the space inside ourselves
|
And emptiness....
|
Is the chattering in your head
|
It's the call of the living
|
And the race from life to death
|
Woa and I know
|
Yes and I know
|
What you feel...
|
|
And I've got a longin'
|
That's hard to find
|
Won't give me no peace of mind
|
Something that I've lived with all along
|
Days and weeks and months and years
|
Filling in the time my dear
|
Tryin' to find the place where I belong
|
|
Hopelessness
|
is the darkness in your heart
|
It's the sound of one hand clapping
|
While it's pulling you apart
|
Woa and I know
|
Yes and I know
|
What you feel
|
|
And
|
I've got a longin'
|
That's hard to find
|
Won't give me no peace of mind
|
Something that I've lived with all along
|
Days and weeks and months and years
|
Filling in the time my dear
|
Tryin' to find the place where I belong
|
|
And
|
I got a hunger that's
|
Hard to fill
|
Driving me on overkill
|
Tellin' me that everything's gone wrong
|
Got me a need
|
That I can't break
|
More than I can hardly take
|
Somehow I still keep on going strong
|
|
When I call your name
|
I'm gonna scream out loud
|
I'll say...
|
"here I am standing in the crowd"
|
You'll say "come to me"
|
With your open mind
|
you never know
|
What you still might find"
|
But you keep me here
|
Like a cancelled flight
|
An empty train
|
Running through the night
|
An orphan child
|
A broken shoe
|
and I'm still down here
|
Looki' out for you
|
Are you there for me?
|
'Cause I'm here for you
|
