[Originally by Alone In A Crowd]. . Is anybody there?. Does anybody care?. Does anybody see what I see?. Do you remember when we used to hang out?. And we knew what we were ALL ABOUT.

That girl you were seein' back in '72. Somethin' 'bout a hotel room and bath water in your shoes. Were you into your Catholic thing then or some other stew.
She came onto him like a slow movin' cold front. His beer was warmer than the look in her eyes. She sat on a stool, he said, "What do you want?". She said, "Give me a love that don't freeze up inside.".
Well I'm out here on my own. Followin' a star. Asking on my knees, for some direction, please,. And, God, you know that's hard. . Cause I'm such a stubborn man.
I'm a real man, I got a real guitar. I'm a real man, don't even know where the boys are. I don't want to frighten you little girl, you're so sweet and nice.

How've you been? Alright?. You got the power. Turn on the light. Don't run for cover. No need to hide. You should be here. Right by my side. . 'Cause you know I've got your number.
I'm a real man, I got a real guitar. I'm a real man, don't even know where the boys are. Don't want to frighten you little girl, you're so sweet and nice.
I'm a real man, got some real guitar I'm a real man. I don't even know where the boys are. I don't mean to frighten you little girl 'cause you're so sweet and nice.
