Lonely Afternoon lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Lonely Afternoon lyrics Well, the silence in this house It echoes in this house I pull myself together, say "Today I will get out" The world, it changed without me You should hear what I ve been told The streets I see are blasphemy Lined with paper cups and gold And in some dream, I think That every word I dare to speak Someone s always leaning over me Lean all over me A giant vision in the distance Chase that rainbow down I hear a pound, pound, pounding in my chest I hear a knock, a knocking sound It s the slivers flowing through my veins It s a sign that I m alive You re lucky, oh my friend, so lucky You re lucky just to be alive As words go turning by I wish they d all come clear In this room Another lonely afternoon I can count the lonely days I get by, as they go by Standing in the stairway by this room By this room (They ve held me down for long enough; Like a flower, I need to grow) The frail and tender heart Been shipwrecked with a fool Feeling so abused, well, sometimes Life can be so cruel And the ones who make decisions for you Well, they better understand But you don t know what made me think of that Lonely afternoon song lyrics
