I stand crying as the world rushes by Lonely tears seep from the corners of my eyes Softly I sob as my soul screams in pain I cast about desperately, but all is in vain I already know what my fate now must be Everyone finds someone, I find only me Someday a heros death I will valiantly find Maybe this time for real and not in my mind For the rescues Ive managed now number untold Like heroes today or those valiant knights of old My soul aches with desire as I vanquish my foes And Im left with my heart crying softly in the cold As the others go home with their women and their prizes I stumble on with my joyous disguises Someday theyll need me and then theyll despair For my strength finally wanes and I cannot be there But somehow, someway in the dark and the fright Their cries and their needs will banish the night Then to their rescue, swiftly I will race And all shall rejoice, danger driven from this place As always invisible to my home do I fly And unseen by the world I cry and I cry. |
