Like an old man Sitting alone at a lunch counter Like a small town girl A big city devours Some of us laugh Even in our darkest hour Never leave lonely alone Unspoken rules of solitude Wound without a trace A lifetime of dreams roll down your face All that we can't say Is all we need to hear When you close your eyes Does the world disappear There's something in everyone Only they know It moves in the hidden ways Of joy and sorrow Never leave lonely alone
