music link http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=31974 The Big Alone Well I ain't no preacher I'm no heart savin saint But I am a believer In what is and what ain't There's no kid left in me Can't change things I regret Feelin down at forty-three Ain't found no true love yet Chorus I'm lost out here in the big alone Wonderin what my life's about I feel empty to the bone My time is runnin out Need a love to call my own Need a heart to lean on....out here in the big alone I did some good-bye lovin With some Mary's & Janes They all gave me somethin But nothin I could save No more Romeo disguise Can't keep livin this way Need love to ease my mind The same lover everyday Chorus But I'm lost out here in the big alone Wonderin what my life's about I feel empty to the bone My time is runnin out Need a love to call my own Need a heart to lean on....out here in the big alone Bridge: When the dawn comes soft and gentle An I face the new daylight I need someone right beside me Who'll be there day and night. Chorus I'm lost out here in the big alone Everybody talkin crazy I feel empty to the bone Can't hear what they're saying Need a love to call my own Need a heart to lean on......out here in the big alone |

I love that line "out here in the big alone" I'll be humming this as I work tonight (alone) Eric, I liked the slight changes you made to the song lyrics, especially the chorus line your lyrics and music are easy to listen to and I found myself singing along (won't torture your ears with my version) time to get your cd |

Hi ethome, I do so enjoy your music and your lyrics. In this case I loved the view from the bridge. It does indeed get lonely out there. *Hugs* to you if you need one! Always good to read you, Sir~ |
