An office job, a desk, a second-hand suit
A name tag sitting so crooked on his chest
A wife and kid sleeping in house up the street
A solitary man, so lonely, so sweet
So lonely like you or me
Skinny frame, long hair, blue eyes that hardly see
All the things that make a normal man feel uneasy
No milk in his coffee or sugar in his tea
A simple man, so lonely, so sweet
So lonely like you or me
All my days are spent
Wondering when they end
It was easy at the start but now it’s hard
Being my only friend
A king bed without a queen
A broken spring that squeaks
Skips breakfast in the morning just to catch up on sleep
a long train ride to work without a spare seat
an empty man, so lonely, so sweet
so lonely like you or me
Back yard’s piling up with things nobody needs
Hopes one day he will win the lottery
Buy a boat and sail around the seven seas
A dreaming man, so lonely, so sweet
So lonely like you or me
All my days are spent
Wondering when they end
It was easy at the start but now it’s hard
Being my only friend
