Tears In The Night
Written by Only a Shadow
 
He looks up at the sky, so dark and gray,
and know's that rain is on the way.
He walks along a busy street,
smiling and greeting those along the way,
While no one know's the loneliness that's inside.
He looks into faces he never see's,
then goes silently on his way.
 
No one wants him, no one cares,
and he asks himself why,
but he doesn't say a single word,
and looks back to the sky.
 
His heart is as heavy as the clouds overhead.
He doesn't want to be here in this rain,
He wants to be somewhere that's cheerful,
but there is no place but home...
.....again.....
 
Back at home he's lonelier still,
and softly he starts to cry,
because he feels the world is such a wonderful place,
and it has slowly passed him by.
 
He looks out the window, out to the pouring rain,
through the eyes of many years,
and wishes for someone to be near to him,
just to ease his old age fears.
 
Throughout the night and the dark,
he wishes he could talk,
to someone that would care for him,
and sooth his breaking heart.
 
But no one comes, for no one cares,
for the feelings that he hides,
for the loneliness in a man's heart,
and the love that's deep inside.
