Lyrics

What's that sound at the top of the stairs coming through that open door

Don't tell me, I think I can guess 'cos i've heard it many times before

Its the sound of a lonely man, lonely man crying

Its the sound of a lonely man, lonely man crying

And if he don't put his feelings in an old tin box

And throw them in the river then his soul is lost

Soon he'll find that all he's got is the sound of a lonely man crying.


Whar's that sound I can't quite hear 'though his mouth is open wide

Is it the sound of a falling tear or something deep down inside

Its the sound of a lonely heart, lonely heart breaking

Its the sound of a lonely heart, lonely heart breaking

And if he don't put his feelings in an old tin box

And throw them in the river, then his soul is lost

Soon he'll find that all he's got is the sound of a lonely man crying.

Its the sound.............................................of a lonely man crying.
