After so long
Guess I shouldn't complain;
There's always sunshine
And not ever rain
There's no neighbors shouting
At night when I'm home
And I'm left completely alone
Silence is golden
When you're in a crowd
But silent aloneness
Is slient out loud
Aloneness is cherished
Where men can't run free
But no more aloneness for me
The nighttime stars whisper
And cry in their sleep
They want to join them
To share what they keep
They shine and they sparkle
And weep just for me
They cry and they beckon;
I know it can't be
For silently lonely
No friend by my side
No virtue to cling to
Not even my pride
I stand in the star's light
And gaze toward my home
Can a man die from being alone?
Guess I shouldn't complain;
There's always sunshine
And not ever rain
There's no neighbors shouting
At night when I'm home
And I'm left completely alone
Silence is golden
When you're in a crowd
But silent aloneness
Is slient out loud
Aloneness is cherished
Where men can't run free
But no more aloneness for me
The nighttime stars whisper
And cry in their sleep
They want to join them
To share what they keep
They shine and they sparkle
And weep just for me
They cry and they beckon;
I know it can't be
For silently lonely
No friend by my side
No virtue to cling to
Not even my pride
I stand in the star's light
And gaze toward my home
Can a man die from being alone?
