The Lonely Life |
What if I did not love you? |
Where would that leave me |
Would I wander through the avenues |
Under a pall of misery |
Would I be face down in the gutter |
With cheap whiskey on my breath |
The lonely life of a writer |
Whose words could not pay his debts |
Singin' please don’t, please don’t pass me by |
I am alive, oh can’t you see? |
That I’ve been blinded completely |
Please don’t, please don’t pass me by |
I am alive, oh can’t you see? |
That I am pleading for your mercy |
What if we became strangers? |
Would you notice my face in a crowd? |
And you could you hear the sorrow in my voice? |
Helplessly crying your name out loud |
Would I be searching for a savior? |
Burned and burning with regret |
The lonely life of a writer |
Only if one last desperate request |
Singin' please don’t, please don’t pass me by |
I am alive, oh can’t you see? |
That I’ve been blinded completely |
Please don’t, please don’t pass me by |
I am alive, oh can’t you see? |
That I am pleading for your mercy |
I’ve been on the lamb |
Being hunted, somethin' fierce |
They say time and time, it wait’s for no man |
But I was just hopin' |
These storm filled skies would clear |
Please don’t, please don’t pass me by |
Please don’t, please don’t pass me by |
Please don’t, please don’t pass me by |
I am alive, oh can’t you see? |
That I am pleading for your mercy |
