Volume Five
Lonely Wind
[Verse 1]
I'm run down and empty inside
Hollow wood and faded lives
No one hears me now
There's a swing on the old oak tree
Where the kids used to sing to me
When they were around

[Chorus]
Left behind and long forgotten
It's just me and the lonely wind again

[Verse 2]
Friends have come and friends have gone
Now I sit here all alone
My walls are crumbling in
But one friend, he still stops by
We sing songs and the willows cry
You can hear the wind

[Chorus]
Left behind and long forgotten
It's just me and the lonely wind again

[Verse 3]
My doors are open if anyone's around
Off Exit 40 on the outskirts of town
You'll find me waiting here
I'm old and gray and far from new
When the wind starts to sing his tune
I'll join in
[Chorus]
Left behind and long forgotten
It's just me and the lonely wind again
It's just me and the lonely wind again
