Loneliness does funny things inside a man

Loneliness does funny things inside a man,
Like falling in love with every woman who looks at you,
Or putting it all on the line for the way she says \'yea me too\'.

Loneliness does funny things to the mind,
Was she looking my way that way because she took a shine? or is it I, at the wrong end of, the stick that hits between the eyes ?

Loneliness does funny things to the everyday mundane.
I swear sometimes I could kill, just to feel, a sincere warm embrace, or to feel the choke in my throat of too much perfume she\'s sprayed again.

Loneliness does funny things inside a man.
I can\'t be the only one who doesn\'t understand,
How the couple in the coffee shop, ignore each others every need and want, all the while with phones in hand. or how the graveyard of our youth fills up everyday, with the bones of we come so close, but didn\'t take the chance, that lady love was holding out, offering up with both hands..Loneliness does funny things inside a man.
