Jimmy the Loner Finds True Love

Another night alone again I think of you
And I envision what you should have been
Your stiff posture belies your supple personage
The only hardness is your heart within

I met you in the silence of the dead of night
The moon glow was the only light
That reflected on your flaxen hair to your delight
To my eyes all else was dim

We danced all night on the kitchen floor
Every day was spent the same

But all right
Life's been so long
Lived without you
Now that you're gone, gone, gone
And I'm here
And I'll always be here for you

The morning sun broke bright upon that final day
The shadows could not conceal
The flaws and imperfections on your features when
The truth was at last revealed

I'll never trust the daylight anymore
It blinded your heart; it bears the blame

But all right
Life's been so long
Lived without you
Now that you're gone, gone, gone
And I'm here
And I'll always be here for you

In my dark despair, I tried to search for you
At the market, the place you knew
And how I vowed to replace you with another from there
But the others in the bin could not compare

All the ladies in the store
Laughed when I told them your name
I miss your limp blonde hair more and more
The thin wooden pole of your frame

But all right
Life's been so long
Lived without you
Now that you're gone, gone, gone
And I'm here
And I'll always be here for you
