The sirens are sounding all down the street
The cars are stood still in the midday heat
The people packed inside like sardines in a can
I would like to change things but I'm just one man
She walks on by, she's walking on home
Her child is with her but she's all alone
The neighbours are fighting all night long
I would like to change things but I'm one man alone
I am one man alone
And if you are worried that there's nobody by your side
Take a look around, I am here both day and night
We both know what it means to be alone if only for a time
I am here right now and I do my best to put things right
Don't you know all love's real so don't say that it's not
I know it was the same for you but over time you have forgotten
A lie that comes out can hurt and one that doesn't also can
I would like to change things but I'm just one man, I am just one man
And if you are worried that there's nobody by your side
Take a look around, I am here both day and night
We both know what it means to be alone if only for a time
I am here right now and I do my best to put things right
And if you are worried that there's nobody by your side
Take a look around, I am here both day and night
We both know how it feels to be alone if only for a time
I am here right now and I do my best to put things right
