once on a cold grey morning
I was walking home alone
the traffic light in the falling rain
the unanswered phone
I was so sad and lonely
on a lonesome avenue
so sad and lonely
what could I do

once I opened a drawer
in a room of a strange hotel
I saw a photograph of you
you looked so sad and lonely
on a lonesome avenue
so sad and lonely
what could I do

once in a railway station
in the city where I live
the windows were like mirrors
in this train
'hey, what you're doing with your life'
