John Denver No One 1971

I came into this lovely city

About three weeks ago today

And I've been trying to find someone that I can talk to

A friendly face to turn my way

I walk these streets in silent sorrow

I walk my feet into the ground

And all I see are cloudy, cold, suspicious faces

I swear to God it brings me down

Is there no one with a smile for me

No one with the hello in their eyes

Is there no one who will love me

And help me through the dark and lonely night

The park's so green and full of flowers

and lovers lying on the lawn

I wish I had a lady here that I could laugh with

Sweet Jesus Christ, it hurts me so to be alone

Is there no one with a smile for me

No one with the hello in their eyes

Is there no one who will love me

And help me through the cold and lonely night

Singing la la la la la la

Singing la la la la la la

This life is hard and full of trouble

It's painful just to live from day to day

But if you're weary and afraid don't turn away now

There's no reason why we have to feel this way

Is there no one who will smile for me

No one with the hello in their eyes

Is there no one who will love me

And help me through the cold and lonely night

Singing la la la la la la

Singing la la la la la la

I just need someone to talk to

It hurts to be alone

I just need someone to laugh with

It hurts to be alone

I just want someone to love me

I need someone to talk to

And it hurts to be alone

Singing la la la la la la

Singing la la la la la la

Singing la la la la la la

Singing la la la la la la
