Little man was hungry They saw him as a tramp With a love note in his pocket, But no money for a stamp, He just sits there in the doorway And he sings his lonely song, Mumbling the cold out of his hands, Watching the shadows weave and dance, Smiling, but in his eyes the chances are gone He was me, He was you, Maybe someone that you knew, There goes everybody's brother, What's his name? Walk on by, Pay no mind, Heartbreaks happen all the time Ain't it cold enough today, so let it rain The painter tries to paint him, And the poet, he tries to see, I think he had a castle, In the man he used to be, He just stuck to us a question, Can you tell me what you've learned? "Nobody knows the truth," he said, "Not till the book has all been read, Follow the one you love instead of the road." He was me, He was you, Maybe someone that you knew, There goes everybody's brother, What's his name? Walk on by, Pay no mind, Heartbreaks happen all the time Ain't it cold enough today, so let it rain He was me, He was you, Maybe someone that you knew, There goes everybody's brother, What's his name? Walk on by, Pay no mind, Heartbreaks happen all the time Ain't it cold enough today, so let it rain Ain't it cold enough today, let it rain Ain't it cold enough today, So let it rain

Tryna crawl in back for more And with one kiss You inspired a fire of devotion That lasted 20 years What kind of man loves like this What kind of man loves like this What kind of man What kind of man loves like this What kind of man But I can't beat you Cause I'm still with you Oh mercy I implore How do you do it I think I'm through it Then I'm back against the wall What kind of man loves like this What kind of man What kind of man loves like this What kind of man What kind of man loves like this What kind of man What kind of man loves like this What kind of man
