See the lonely man there on the corner,
What he`s waiting for, I don`t know.
But he waits every day now.
He`s just waiting for something to show.
And nobody knows him, and nobody cares,
`Cause there`s no hidin` place,
There`s no hidin` place
for you.
Lookin` everywhere at no one,
He sees everything and nothing at all, oh.
When he shouts, nobody listens,
Where he leads, no one will go, oh.
He`s a lonely man there on the corner.
What he`s waiting for, I don`t know.
But he waits every day now.
He`s just waiting for something to show.
And nobody knows him, and nobody cares,
`Cause there`s no hidin` place,
There`s no hidin` place
For you and me.
Are we just like all the rest?
We`re lookin` too hard for somethin` he`s got
or movin` too fast to rest.
But like a monkey on your back, you need it.
But do you love it enough to leave it all?
Just like the lonely man there on the corner,
What he`s waiting for, I don`t know.
But he waits every day now,
He`s just waiting for that somethin` to show.
