about

This song about alone-ness has kind of a Velvet's vibe.
If you wait long enough here is a little bonus track "Knock Down 7 Times Got up 8" attached to this song recorded on my boom box.
Margaret Moser liked that little track. We miss you Margaret.

lyrics

Silence can be golden. Other times it's just brown.
I like to be by myself but sometimes I wish you were around.
There's great big empty space. It's kind of hard to define.
Sometimes I don't rest easy. Other times I find peace of mind.
Sometime I feel so lonely. I just break down and cry.
Just me, myself and only. Watching the clouds roll by.

I am like an empty jar. Need contents to fill me up.
Then my cup runneth over. There's no more room in that cup.
