Clouds Of Loneliness
Gordon Lightfoot

What can you do, you'll never win Where will you go when night closes in Where will it lead, will it ever end Where will it stop, losing a friend isn't What we had in mind exactly All we need is a friend I guess With my midnight star to guide through Clouds of loneliness

You knew someone but was it love So many years push came to shove You had a dream, so they had one too You turned away, they were untrue In our early days we were too willing At the time we had yet to arrive Many a man and woman found Trying to stay alive

Where will you go, what will you do When your whole world ain't talking to you Maybe you think you will see the light Maybe you'll find what you hope is right And I'm all dressed up to be somebody
All I need is a friendly face With my midnight crowd to glide through Clouds of empty space

Seems like every time we turn around What we see could be anyone's guess Many a man and woman found in Clouds of loneliness
