Lonely
Kid has gone off on her own. House is quiet as a mouse. No more random questions to answer.
Just a lonely old man. Sitting in his yard grilling whatever he can. Just a lonely old man.
Wife’s gone out of town. Again she loves to shop. Earbuds in her ears. The beat goes on.
Just a lonely old man. Sitting in his yard grilling whatever he can. Just a lonely old man.
Friends have all disappeared. Neighbors won’t even come out and talk. Close their doors and their drapes. Pretend they aren’t home.
Just a lonely old man. Sitting in his yard grilling whatever he can. Just a lonely old man.
Who would even notice. He he weren’t there. Wanted to help others. Stuck in a dead end job. Till one day he just gave up.
Just a lonely old man. Sitting in his yard grilling whatever he can. Just a lonely old man.
I look out from yard. Always said hello. He never answered me. Must have been deaf. Now he is gone.
Just a lonely old man. Sitting in his yard grilling whatever he can. Just a lonely old man.
Blessed be
