lyrics

Lonely One

All I can give you today
Are things worth taking
Is it some fancy charade
Or am I mistaken
Talk about lover some night with your friends
Leave me alone and start all over again

It’s time to play the foolish one
It’s time to play the lucky one
Ordinary life has got to change

I can’t see from far away
Are you in the picture
All I know is today
Right there in the mirror
Could you by chance step right out and right in
So I can see and not see you again

It’s time to play the lonely one
Just sit right here and stare into sky
Ordinary life has got to change

It’s time to play the greedy one
It’s time to play the simple son
It’s time to play without the fun
It’s time to play the sleepless one
It’s time to play for just one run
It’s time to play God’s only son
It’s time to play the well-read bum
It’s time to play for your sad soul
Sad soul
