Only The Lonely

ONLY THE LONELY - Written by Carroll Bryant

I better watch my step

High stride

I got to get out of this mess I'm in

All I need is time 

Or the look from another pair of eyes

It's not you or your un-originality

It's all about the feelings

Or the ones you no longer bring to me

Maybe we both will learn from this ordeal

Maybe we both let go of the wheel

Love no longer grows

Only the lonely would know 

How that feels

Knowledge is power 

Slide down

No one has the heart to explain it

Except for the man on the moon

Or a demented clown

Sometimes we're faced with choices

Tough decisions we must make

We never seem to fight for time

Blame is our favorite rhyme 

Two people who never give to get what they take

Maybe we both will learn from this mess

Maybe we both took and failed the big test

Love no longer shows

Only the lonely would know 

How that is

You seek revenge with the help

Of your political friends

They really want to help you

So does the man on the moon

Nobody will admit they know or that they understand

Just know that demented clown has a glove

Covering his hand

This love is far from being alive

It doesn't know what it means to live

Your second thought is to say

You want to try and persuade me to stay

But I won't stay with you

Maybe we both will learn from this ordeal

Maybe we both let go of the wheel

Love no longer grows

Only the lonely would know 

How that feels

Only the lonely like me and you
