i walked down the streets coridors listening to the echo my shoes made on the cocrete.
it echoes like the distant drums beneith mt feet.
the street lights made such an erie glow
letting me know i had no place to go
acrooss the baron streets i watched a lone dog scurry
i had no where to go,there was no hurry.
by a bench i sat down to rest my weiry soul
wishing i had someone to make me whole
i lit a cigarett and held my breath
being alone was a fate worse than death.
i walked to the park and i stood by the gate
wandering how,i had met such a fate.
i needed someone who to me could lend
just the time to be my friend
i walked by the fountains now dry as a bone
i hated this world that made me alone
then i saw with my clouding eye
an old man sitting hed started to cry
i walked over and i sat by his side
an ols felt hat tipped so is face it woul hide.
we sat there togather and ner said a word
twas not a sound,noteven a bird
he finally said in a voice so low
theres more to this world boy and this you should know
never go to bed angry or miss any sleep
keep love in your heart andfeelings deep
hold not a grudge or ill tempered thought
or alone in this world youll find yourself caught.
do unto others as youd have done unto you
and find those to you whose hearts are so true.
theres nothing so lonely that this world canntlend
i looked finally into that old mans face
and i said these words
so seemingly out of place
till stay here beide you till the bitter end
for in you ive found a friend
then he looked at me and a chill toutched my spine,
that moment changed my life and i wish i could define
the mirracle that happend
when i saw that face was mine
