| The Lonely Man I offered you some sunshine on a cold and cloudy day You gave me but a single look and then you turned away I offered you some starlight in the dark and unlit night but you said that starlight burns you couldn't take the light I offered you some springtime for the winter's dreary cold but you said the breath of spring had only turned you old I offered you the gift of love to break your heart of stone but you said that wouldn't do and left me here alone I finally offered friendship to help you ease your fears and even that you wouldn't take so I offer you my tears. The last thing I offer you is sadness felt today for the man whose happiness he took and threw away So take with you the knowledge that I've given all I can and I'll take the memory of the solitary man. |
