Poetically Speaking – The Lonely, Lonely Man

I see your life slipping away from you

and I see in your eyes, you’re ready for life to be through

If you had your life to live again

tell me, would you take the chance

to trade in the broken pieces or hang on to what you have?

Would you take the chance to live

Do you have any hope left to give

Do you feel your life is closing in

Are you still waiting for your life to begin

Do you feel that someday may never come

You watch your dreams all wash away, one by one

You’re standing waiting for your life to end

And you find that you’re standing alone again

You’re a lonely, lonely man

I see your life slipping away from you

And I see in your eyes, you’re ready for life to be through

But if there were something yet to see

Tell me would you open your eyes

And if there were one dream left to dream

Would you walk away or let it die

Would you take the chance to live

Do you have any hope left to give

Do you feel your life is closing in

Are you still waiting for your life to begin

Do you feel that someday may never come

You watch your dreams all wash away, one by one

You’re standing waiting for your life to end

And you find that you’re standing alone again

You’re a lonely, lonely man
