So Lovelorn In London Town

From morn to friendless night He tramps the streets Just in case he might Come across her he's a tragic sight But he don't care Love gives him might He haunts the cafes and the discos And the bars so lovelorn   He knows that he won't find her But he's got to keep on trying It gives some meaning to his life It gives some substance to his time It is his motive and his project And his plan so lovelorn   He only met her once But it changed his life And it changed his type And it changed his mind   They say he once was A successful man But he threw it all up As if he'd gone insane And he took to the streets And another man was born   They say love comes but once For some but when it does It's like a mighty Atom bomb inside A disease that seizes A gentle soul And when it comes for him He'd better try to hide   From morn to friendless night He tramps the streets Just in case he might Come across her he's a tragic sight But he don't care Love gives him might He haunts the cafes and the discos And the bars so lovelorn.
