This Sad Song

this sad song will write itself

when you're gone

& when there's no one else

empty the streets of people

& you'll find yourself

the saddest song

unfolding unto itself

this sad life lives by itself



when it's gone

no one wonders what's going on

empty the rooms of lonely people by themselves

their saddest lives unfolding

searching for a meaning to carry on



all good people who can never find love

true love for people

all their lives spent looking

for the hearts of people who can never find love

feed the hungriest hearts with love



this sad world all by itself

when it's gone

so will everybody else

empty the hearts of people who've never given love

to a stranger

filled with hunger in the heart



hungry the hearts of people who can never find love

hungry the hearts of people

all their lives spent looking

for the hearts of people who can never find love

feed the hungriest hearts with love.
