You said The hardest time is when I'm alone Then you sighed a goodbye and hung up the telephone And me in the noise with a glass half full of beer I'd have to admit it was really quite nice To be out with the people and lights Then the band asked how we were doing tonight Just at the point that I'd been feeling fine Then they played an ordinary song Outside it rained an ordinary rain Then this guy tapped my shoulder, he said he liked our show We sounded just like some band from a decade ago And I smiled as he spoke, and I think I shook his hand But I certainly don't remember his name For a moment I thought that the right thing to do Would be to quick call you back, say, I'm struck by loneliness too Though that sounds like an awful lie When there's scores of people around So I ran to the drugstore I bought a postcard instead And I wrote these words beneath the letterhead Love, we all do struggle with loneliness Love, I am often very afraid That the best times that we'll have are somewhere in the past And it's all fool's gold To hope for a better life From Letras Mania
