An old man walks along the path It isn´t raining anymore The hotel sign reflects upon a lorry parked below A kid goes walking home from school And stands there at the door Behind the windows people sit waiting For the bus to go Another long, lonely afternoon away from you And a long dark lonely night ahead It´s been a long, lonely afternoon here on my own Such a long dark lonely night ahead The heavy clouds are forming for Another day dark and rainy night A woman hurries home before the storm begins To break And as she turns to cross the street Waiting for the walking light She glances quickly at her watch Hoping that she won´t be late Another long, lonely afternoon away from you And a long dark lonely night ahead It´s been a long lonely afternoon here on my own Such a long dark lonely night ahead
