She asked me what I was doin' here Sittin' at the bar Suckin' down the beer Lookin' like my best friend Had just died
Told her I'd come in to ease the pain Was gonna sit here Til I can't recall my name Then I'll pack my bags, hit the road And fly
I'm gonna leave the past behind me Gonna head on down the road Where I end up I guess only the good lord knows Maybe I'll find someone to lean on Maybe someone will lend a hand But until then I'll be just another broken man
She told me things can't be all that bad Prob'ly took for granted Every thing you had One day you woke up And they were gone
Now you think you can run and hide Wrap yourself up Inside your foolish pride But I've been there and I know that you're wrong
You can't leave the past behind you No matter how hard you try It'll be there Every time you close your eyes You might find some one to lean on But if you never make a stand You won't ever be more than Just another broken man
So we left that bar behind us And made our way back home Spent the night Wrapped up in a fire's glow We were leanin' on each other Quietly holding hands And putting back together Just another broken man

This song is just so sad... but it's a good write :-) So far, this is the best song lyrics I've come across since I joined YPDC three years back. Good work! |

Very nice. The past is always there for all, but getting on with our lives is a must. Of this I know. |

A sad scene my friend, but he learns to gain support from another and not continue as such a loner.
Well done, Willofree |

I look back to my last comment, and I am blushing furiously! I'm so sorry for the rapid note, but it was a dire emergency that I HAD to attend to. Please forgive me! lol... I will start again from where I left off... Truly amazing, the way you weave words! Inspirational, enchanting, and incredibly sad! The ending, as I stated before, was very touching... You create such beautiful songs! Are you a musician? If you aren't, you should be! Extravegant piece, perfect! I loved this! Thank you for sharing! All my love and blessings, as always! Eternally yours,
Fleur *still blushing!* |

You already have so many comments....but you still deserve more...so here's mine: That was absolutely BEAUTIFUL !! No words can properly describe how this made me feel. This would definetly be a #1 hit on my charts. Love it. This brought me memories and tears. Keep up the talent. Although....this very much reminds me of the song by Lynard Synard "Simple Man". Anyhow.... pure,simple and magnificant.

Awww... the country world would love these lyrics. Well, any genre,but country just seems to sink their teeth into "the lonely guy" songs. I don't like country but would love to hear the tune that goes with this rhythmic flow of words. I would say "been there, done that" But I'm a gal! lol And lonely IS my middle name! lol
Well done Naz,as always!!!!
Angel always...joni |

I read this, I think, differently then the others who have commented... I don't find it to be too terribly sad. Maybe it's your note on the top - but - this felt like a let-it-go-where-it-wants kind of write. It begins, I think, with quietly contemplating the end of a relationship (I'm guessing a bit...) and turns later - to looking forward, to moving on. (I wonder if you intentionally turned it or if it just came that way..... ).
It is beautiful... and... hopefilled, I think. Granted, maybe I'm interpreting your write with my own experiences in mind - but... I find the "moment" that you captured here to be quite relatable. It is, I think, a very positive moment.
Very well done! I hope you don't mind my pondering on it here...
