Lyrics
On the lounge wall there hangs a picture
With too many tales to tell
and the eyes they will deceive you
For on a lonely night in May she found
the arms of another
Found someone to take away her pain
He said are you lonely are you longing
He said do you cry when you go to sleep at night
She said I am many things I am in need of love
I am just a woman I am all of the above
The children's voices they tell a story
He gets home late every night
with the scent of another
Broken dreams they drift away to a place
out of reach
too late to save the day too late
He said are you lonely are you longing
He said do you cry when you go to sleep at night
She said I am many things I am in need of love
I am just a woman I am all of the above
She asked him if he's guilty
She asked him if he cared
She asked him if he cheated
She asked him whose bed he's shared
She asked him if he's in love
She said she'd had enough
He said I am lonely I am longing
He said that he cries when he goes to sleep at night
He said I am many things I'm in need of love
I am just a man I am all of the above
He said I am lonely I am longing
He said that he cries when he goes to sleep at night
He said I am many things I'm in need of love
I am just a man I am all of the above
