Song to a Writer

from Lamentations by Ian Taylor

/

lyrics

& you get lonely but not like this
the ashtray says I need a friend
& you get lonely but not like this
now everywhere I go
every town I stroll through
there's someone that I know
but I always look for you
& damn it gets old carrying your blues
while you've got professors
who dig the way you look
an how you write such nice letters
how you write such nice books
you've got the whole world, babe
who'll take you out to lunch
& you get lonesome
maybe a little like me
but only in the sense
that these souls aren't cheap
& i hope it gets lonesome
without me
