Lyrics The Poet and the One Man Band - Kayak

The Poet and the One Man Band

I can see a worried man
Paper still white, he s on a journey that will never end
He s got the message, needing words, but doesn t understand
The poet and the one man band
No one seems to know
Why life has run so low
I can see a silly man
Dreaming of a perfect love, a starry sky romance
Living on an island, doesn t really understand
The poet is a one man band
Left alone to cry
Poets never live until they die
Life seems but a joke
Love re-mending hearts that broke
Isn t it a strange thing too
All the words inside of you
Couldn t possibly explain why you feel it s all been said before
Spending your days alone and closing all doors
Too far beyond your eyes you think
But coming out you find they haven t gone
So take your stand
You ll see they all have come
To join the one man band
