rate me

See the lonely man there on the corner,<br>What he's waiting for, I don't know,<br>But he waits everyday now.<br>He's just waiting for something to show.<br><br>And nobody knows him,<br>And nobody cares,<br>'cos there's no hiding place,<br>There's no hiding place - for you.<br><br>Looking everywhere at no one,<br>He sees everything and nothing at all - oh.<br>When he shouts nobody listens,<br>Where he leads no one will go - oh.<br><br>He's a lonely man, there on the corner,<br>What he's waiting for, I don't know,<br>But he waits everyday now.<br>And he's just waiting for something to show - oh.<br><br>Nobody knows him,<br>And nobody cares,<br>'cos there's no hiding place,<br>There's no hiding place - for you and me.<br><br>Are we just like all the rest,<br>We're looking too hard for something he's got<br>Or moving too fast to rest.<br>But like a monkey on your back you need it.<br>But do you love it enough to leave it - ah.<br><br>Just like the lonely man there on the corner,<br>What he's waiting for, I don't know - oh.<br>But he waits every day now.<br>He's just waiting for that something to show - oh.<br><br>Who's the lonely man there on the corner,<br>What he's waiting for, I don't know.<br>But he's there every day now.<br>And he's just waiting for something to show - oh.<br><br>Who's the lonely man there on the corner,<br>What he's waiting for, I don't know.<br>Oh but he waits every day now.<br>He's just waiting for that something to show.
