Lonely were the nights,
Prolonged were my days,
Solitude my only friend,
Where have all the good things gone,
...

Every man needs someone,
who listens to him,
who plays with him,
who find solace in them,
...

I'm in trouble,
Don't make it double;
You're my hope,
Don't be a dope.
...

Whenever I think about the word 'we',
I feel that it is about u and I;
All the time I am reassured that we,
Have been knowing each other for ages.
...

Asking! Interrogating,
That's how the story begins,
Witty charms and catchy quotes,
The police begin,
...

Upon the bright skyline I gazed,
Entwined about u and I,
There u are; I saw u, crystal clear,
Lonely as u are up on the vast wilderness,
...

I heard something, something;
Of bad news and agony,
Of grief and pain,
Our Jesus, our Lord;
...

Exams are coming,
The harbinger fever confirms it,
That kind of feeling,
When you're mentally demented;
...

The clocks ticking a quarter after three,
rolling on my bed and thinking out loud,
will my enthusiastic brain becomes free,
from my restless as well as vibrant mind.
...

The clocks tickin',
The oval keeper say's tick-tok,
While yet the nocturnal gaze,
With wide awake it search for its prey,
...

When in time those lovely songbirds sing,
When the church bell tolls down yonder,
When the men and women holler,
When children play,
...

Dearly beloved,
It's been a long night,
With the moonlight fading away,
Paving the way for tomorrow to come,
...

So this is how its starts,
life is a market,
an exchange of goods and services,
for me on my part,
...
