Suddenly

My world at night,
Is as quiet as can be.
A self-imposed solitude,
Isn’t half as bad as it seems.
But, Lord, I sit tonight, and I dream of somebody.
Who in the world could it be?
Suddenly
I’m nowhere that I want to be.
Suddenly
You’re the only thing I see.
Suddenly
I’m needing you right next to me
Young didactic thinkers,
And university drinkers,
Living while I stow away,
In my studio I sit here and tinker.
I can’t remember when,
I saw something through 'til its end.
Where in the world could that be?
Suddenly
I’m nowhere that I want to be.
Suddenly
You’re the only thing I see.
Suddenly
I’m needing you right next to me
