Song of the Loner
It’s lonely a cold night of rain
And I compose me a piece
From the pattering of drops
On the steel roof
With claps of thunderbolt
And swish of the wind
Of somebody next door who
Left somebody alone song!
The tap of my feet accord
With the crack of my teeth
When there’s no one beside
To drown my heart away
A sonorous serenade
I croon into allegretto
A mellifluous drone in heart
So sad and drear
Of somebody next door who
Left somebody alone song!
Chime me you night crickets
And buzzing beetle
A piece in the cold night rain
To hype the heartbeat tempo
To wash the slumbering eyes
And feel forlorn at home
From the wailing pine
In the rush of wind
In that dark cold night rain
Of somebody next door who
Left somebody alone song!
