Dave Loggins - Crowd of Lonely People lyrics
[Dave Loggins - Crowd of Lonely People lyrics]
Downtown, hangin' around
Walkin' streets up and down
Goin' nowhere, always gettin' there
Watchin' faces, in my mind
I'm tradin' places
Tailored suit's and ties
Livin' someone else's life
Everything was alright 'til I looked
Through my own eyes
And I saw sidewalks lined with heartache
And I saw pain
(I saw pain) , yes, I saw pain (I saw pain)
I saw a field day comin' for the undertaker
And I saw flames (I saw flames) , yes
I saw flames (I saw flames)
Well, I saw hatred and I saw fear
I saw a man of God and I asked him
"How do I get outta here?"
Outta this crowd of lonely people
Oh, I need to get outta
This crowd of lonely people of lonely people
Window shoppin', dreamin', seldom stoppin'
Thinkin'
Just how good it is, this lucky life I live
Troubled souls abound
What am I doin' downtown?
Drownin' in a sea of footsteps
Gasping for my breath
Teardrops to the rooftops of loneliness
And I saw sidewalks lined with heartache
But, I saw no faith and trust
(Saw no faith)
Tell me (Where's that trust?)
Yes, I saw mannequins posing as women and men
But, I saw no love
(Saw no love) , now tell me
Where is that love?
Well, I saw failure, I saw frustration
And I got frightened and I got
To find myself some transportation
Outta this crowd of lonely people
Oh, I need to get outta
This crowd of lonely people of lonely people
(Gotta get out) Mmm hmm
(Gotta get out) Yes, I do
(Lonely people) Oh my
(Lonely crowd) I have to be leaving
(Gotta get out) Well, I have to go
(Gotta get out) I have to
Save what little happiness
(Lonely people) Is left inside this soul
(Lonely crowd)
I saw hatred, well, I saw many a wasted year
Saw a man of God and I asked him, "Help me
(Help me) outta here"
Outta this crowd of lonely
Outta this crowd, whoa
I need to get on outta
This crowd of lonely people of lonely people
Walkin' streets up and down
Goin' nowhere, always gettin' there
Watchin' faces, in my mind
I'm tradin' places
Tailored suit's and ties
Livin' someone else's life
Everything was alright 'til I looked
Through my own eyes
And I saw sidewalks lined with heartache
And I saw pain
(I saw pain) , yes, I saw pain (I saw pain)
I saw a field day comin' for the undertaker
And I saw flames (I saw flames) , yes
I saw flames (I saw flames)
Well, I saw hatred and I saw fear
I saw a man of God and I asked him
"How do I get outta here?"
Outta this crowd of lonely people
Oh, I need to get outta
This crowd of lonely people of lonely people
Window shoppin', dreamin', seldom stoppin'
Thinkin'
Just how good it is, this lucky life I live
Troubled souls abound
What am I doin' downtown?
Drownin' in a sea of footsteps
Gasping for my breath
Teardrops to the rooftops of loneliness
And I saw sidewalks lined with heartache
But, I saw no faith and trust
(Saw no faith)
Tell me (Where's that trust?)
Yes, I saw mannequins posing as women and men
But, I saw no love
(Saw no love) , now tell me

Well, I saw failure, I saw frustration
And I got frightened and I got
To find myself some transportation
Outta this crowd of lonely people
Oh, I need to get outta
This crowd of lonely people of lonely people

Outta this crowd, whoa

This crowd of lonely people of lonely people
