The babbling of a thousand men
Surround me in this place
I understand not one word
Nor recognize one face
...
A breeze from the ocean
Cools the beach
The stars up above
Seem just out of reach
...
A ship at sea is often tossed
With mighty waves and storm
A dream within is much the same
And in the mind is torn
...
Alone
There is no voice I hear
All the world is quiet
There is no one near
No prophet, sage, or seer
To lighten darkest night
There is no voice I hear
No enemy to fear
Or justify the fright
There is no one near
No lover lying near
To make me feel alright
There is no voice I hear
In silence falls a tear
Lonely in its flight
There is no one near
There is no one to hear
No soul in farthest sight
There is no voice I hear
There is no one near.
