lady loneliness
never leave me alone
lady loneliness
my faithful
thru stages and states
from one ocean to another
you motion to me and i follow
lady loneliness
never leave me alone
lady loneliness
to you i belong
downtowns restaurants bars
waiters in a hurry engineers
lawyers consultants on retainer and streetful
transients recovering empty
pop cans from garbage containers
police ambulance sirens
mixed with the loud music
from cabriolets driven by youngsters
ringing streetcars and deafening buses
prick tattoo needles into my skin while
lady loneliness from afar
wraps her slender arms around my neck
lady loneliness
never leave me
lady loneliness
