I have been down and out no doubt about
It but up and about I have found out
Being a mystery beyond the known
Is good all except for being alone

If I could I would share reality
As far as only lonely eyes can see

To be understood and to understand
Is the best thing in the world to me and
I look for it and find it when I can
A misunderstood understanding man

Just looking for a little company
As far as only lonely eyes can see

Though I have met a few so maybe you
For all I know or you may be the who
By understanding to be understood
And that would be good to be if we could

There must be someone to understand me
As far as only lonely eyes can see
