Solo Travelin' Man

Words and music by Joe Dickinson

 

I know it's midnight and I'm leaving in the morning

But I haven't packed my bags

Got no desire to get thrown into the fire

Or the nuclear aftermath

 

All I really need

Is someone to love

Just someone to lend a hand

To this solo travelin' man

I'm a solo travelin' man

 

The wind is colder when I'm walking by myself

Through the lovely London streets

Wake up to the ceiling and I get the funny feeling

That the world has got me beat

 

All I really need

Is someone to love

Just someone who understands

This solo travelin' man

I'm a solo travelin' man

 

Watching the river when my mind falls prey

To an uninvited trance

I still remember what you whispered in my ear

I still remember when we danced

 

All I really need

Is someone to love

Come on try me if you can

I'm a solo travelin' man

A solo travelin' man

 

Stare into the sockets of a sorry old man

And you'll understand the world regret

I like to pretend I'm one of a kind

The type of person that you can't forget

 

All I really need

Is someone to love

Just someone to lend a hand

To this solo travelin' man

I'm a solo travelin' man
