in me you see a man alone drinking up sunshine and thinking it s his own a man who listens to the trembling of the leaves with sentimental ease easy to be a man alone just make the whole wide world your only home don t talk to strangers some will not be kind and muddle up your mind alone not lonely except when the dark comes on i m a man learning to live with memories of midnights that fell apart at dawn in me you see a man alone drinking up sundays and spending them alone man who still goes walking walking in the rain expecting love again alone not lonely except when the dark comes on i m a man learning to live with memories of midnights that fell apart at dawn easy to be a man alone just make the whole wide world your only home don t talk to strangers some will not be kind and muddle up your mind
