In this weary world
I walked in the crowd
But alone!
None to care,
None to share...
Wading in the stormy seas
Living by my vain dreams
I clung on
I hung on...
I laughed, I smiled and i belonged.
Then, you came with an iron whip
Snatched from me even my dreams
I cling on
I hang on...
Tossing and twirling in the stormy seas.
