A Place Called Lonely Street

By Me…

 

All of my life I felt Lonely

All of my life I felt alone,

I had no one I thought I could talk to

Including those who lived inside my home.

And when I went to school

Kids just laughed at me.

But you know just how cruel

Kids can be.

Then I found some friends

Yes, I found some friends

But they weren’t

The kind of friends they should be.

They led me to the street

Called lonely street

Lonely street Is where

I sold my soul.

 

I did things I didn’t want to do.

I said things I didn’t want to say.

I’m still living down on lonely street.

I can’t seem to go the other way.

Listen all you children everyone

You don’t have to do what I have done.

You don’t have to go to Lonely street

You don’t have to go where I have gone.

It may be too late too help me,

But there are other children to free.

There out on that road to lonely street

That’s not a very nice place to be.

Yes, they’re out there on lonely street,

I know, because it happened to me….

      I'm called Mr. lonely street

    I hear this from all of the people that I meet

    Sometimes I stop to cry

    Then wipe the tears from my eyes

    Who wants to walk this lonely street with me?

    Just think of all the loney people we would see! you and me.

     

    P.S. you are good!

    I wrote this song right after my 2nd husband died, and it was such a lonely time, and i reflected over my life and saw what had brought me to that point...

    java---I guess everyone can relate somewhat to this, it seems to be a bit of the 'human condition' thanks for commenting and the compliment.
