Brigadoon movie - There But For You Go I lyrics

rate me

<br>

TOMMY:<br>

This is hard to say, but as I wandered through the lea,<br>

I felt for just a fleeting moment that<br>

I suddenly was free of being lonely.<br>

Then I closed my eyes and saw the very reason why.<br>

I saw a man with his head bowed low.<br>

His heart had no place to go.<br>

I looked and I thought to myself with a sigh:<br>

There but for you go I.<br>

I saw a man walking by the sea,<br>

Alone with the tide was he.<br>

I looked and I thought as I watched him go by:<br>

There but for you go I.<br>

Lonely men around me, trying not to cry,<br>

Till the day you found me, there among them was I.<br>

I saw a man who had never known a love that was all his own.<br>

I thought as I thanked all the stars in the sky:<br>

There, but for you, go I.<br>
