Solitary man

When I heard you say
Maybe we’ll love again some distant day
I’m without an answer
I rather close my eyes and look for words to say
To treat the solitude again
It’s clear to me it’s there
And we’re at the bottom

Can’t delude ourselves like that
‘Cause love is broken
Then you realize that you’re dizzy now
From all that’s spoken
Nothing near anymore
And everything is far from you
In your room of separation
You’re crawling

You think yourself a man
A solitary man
Living in some distant day
In search of answers
Perhaps man will gradually
Without noticing
Live along some distant day
Into the answers A thousand miles
A thousand dreams
A thousand roads you’ve seen
I crash and burn to mark this fragile state of love
A solitary man
He craves love secretly
A solitary man feels better when he bleeds

You think yourself a man
A solitary man
Living in some distant day
In search of answers
Perhaps man will gradually
Without noticing
Live along some distant day
Into the answers

Perhaps we heard him say
Perhaps man will then gradually
Find his way here again
And live along some distant day
Into the answers
And in doing so
Maybe he’ll speak a word for us all
Maybe he’ll speak a word for us all
