Lonely Soul

He can't remember mom

Never knew his dad

A dog was his companion

The only friend he had


He had a brother somewhere

Who never kept in touch

There was no love between them

So he wasn't missing much


The world can be a lonely place

And folks can be unkind

We hunger for affection, but

True love is hard to find


He loved his childhood sweetheart

And thought she love him too

Until the day she told him

She found somebody new


So he reached out to others

Till he was old and gray

But found no one to love him

And then he passed away


The world can be a lonely place

And folks can be unkind

We hunger for affection, but

True love is hard to find


They say that when you die

And reach to the other side

The one who loves you the most

Becomes your spirit guide


And when he did cross over

He saw to his surprise

A tail that wagged so happily

And faithful, loving eyes
