Timothy Lee Hollandsworth Jr. - Despair

2014-11-07 0

(Male)
It's a cloudy day outside my window
Inside is a dark bleak shade

(Female)
It's a cold day for a lonesome widow
Down on hand and slade

(Male)
An empty house that's cold
Treats me right today

(Female)
If only I should be so bold
To carry on another day

(Together)
Isn't there somebody
Somebody out there for me
Tell me isn't there anybody
Anybody for me

(Male)
I used to dream of love in the rain
Now I can't tell between blue skies and pain
I cry out in Heaven's name
But my name the Heavens do not know

I stand alone again once more
Lost in the drowning sea
I swim for the final shore
Of eternity

Isn't there somebody
Somebody out there for me
Tell me isn't there anybody
Anybody for me

(Female)
This is my last mornings wake
After the dawn my body shall break
I cry out but forget my name
And my name nobody else does know

I fall alone now
Land in a place that's familiar inside
Staring at a face that has also cried
It's mine

Isn't there somebody
Somebody out there for me
Tell me isn't there anybody
Anybody for me

(Together)
Drifting in unknown consciousness
I found you
I'm bound to you
My somebody
