I Was Lonely When

Now I’m travlin' homeward bound
I feel the sun that burns the ground
The mud the sky and in between
A distant thought of yesterday’s dream
I was lonely when
I was lonely then
Traveling at a rapid pace
A friendly smile a familiar face
Can it be a voice I hear
Far away and yet so near?
I was lonely when
I was lonely then
You’re still a part of yesterday’s dream
I’m traveling now towards something unseen
If you should wonder
Where I’m going to follow me
Traveling at a rapid pace
A friendly smile a familiar face
Can it be a voice I hear
Far away and yet so near?
I was lonely when
I was lonely then
If you should wonder
Where I’m going to follow me
The sands of time run out so fast
No thinking future, no lasting past
Darkness in a world of light
Loneliness most every night
I was lonely when
I was lonely then
