Lost and lonely

As i sit here lost and lonely

And this money doesn’t make

Me happy.

Oh, I got rolls of it.
I got bowls of it

But dead presidents can’t make me happy.

Dead presidents just don’t understand me.

Lost and lonely in the shadows

Radio playing so low

As I play a slow sad song

Composed to make the hurting

Grow.

And just the melody of

Loneliness

Is a symphony

But my fingers can’t find the

Right strings.

For the heart of my music was

Lost in the storm

Across these many seas.

Even here on the sea where

Waves of beauty surround me

Calypso and Poseidon’s moist kiss

They don’t do a thing for me

When her laughter will not sing

To me

Give all of it for just one kiss.

Chris

Nowhere
