am i alone in this world

can somebody hear me

or be near me

am i blind to the love

the beautiful love of god



here i am

standing before a crowd

trying to belong

terrified of hiding

asking you to listen to my song

asking you to listen to me

am i alone in this world



a woman i know

i saw her in the street

she was selling books

no family no money

i could not find a way to say hello

i could not find a way to say hello

am i alone in this world



late last night

a man at the garbage can

was picking through the crap

and the neighborhood boys

starting beating him up with a baseball bat

beating him up with a baseball bat



am i alone in this world

can somebody hear me

or be near me

am i blind to the love

the beautiful love of god
