All Lonely People

from Where the Story Goes by John Lyle

lyrics

All Lonely People

Out with the eyes when
They shed the disguise
And the world view turns to light
And with folded arms they
Read themselves their rights

All lonely people
Going where they go
To the land of dreams
To watch their shadows grow
All lonely people
Doing what they do
Only trying to prove
A masquerade is true

Hanging around with
Their heads in the clouds
When the cold wind comes to blow
And they start to lose
The things they think they know

All lonely people
Going where they go
To the land of dreams
To watch their shadows grow
All lonely people
Doing what they do
Only trying to prove
A masquerade is true

Back of the shadows
Nothing can move
The love of the only one
Back of the shadows
All lonely people remember
What they’ve done
