am i alone in this world
can somebody hear me
or be near me
am i blind to the love
the beautiful love of god

here i am
standing before a crowd
trying to belong
terrified of hiding
asking you to listen to my song
asking you to listen to me
am i alone in this world

a woman i know
i saw her in the street
she was selling books
no family no money
i could not find a way to say hello
i could not find a way to say hello
am i alone in this world

late last night
a man at the garbage can
was picking through the crap
and the neighborhood boys
starting beating him up with a baseball bat
beating him up with a baseball bat

am i alone in this world
can somebody hear me
or be near me
am i blind to the love
the beautiful love of god
