------------------------------------------
I live alone, that hasn't always
been easy to do for just a single man
Sometimes it's nice the walls
talk back to me,
They seem to say, wasn't
yesterday a better day?
Always alone, at home or in a
crowd,
A single man off on his private
cloud,
'Cause in a world that few men
understand,
I am what I am, the single man.
Once was a time, I can't
remember when,
The house was filled with love,
but then again,
It might have been imagination's
plan
To help along a single man.
