I saw the lights go out this morningJust as the sun was coming up I was still walking round the cityTrying to find a way to sober up There were cold and concrete canyonsJust as far as I could see And in a window I saw someoneAnd I thought he looked an awful lot like me And I could hear him say Im not gonna cry today Im gonna take it all in stride And keep the tears inside And see what I can find Im not gonna think about it Im just gonna live without it Today will come and go And Ill get by I know Just one step at a time I looked around to see who listenedThe words just echoed off the stone And as the street filled up with peopleI wondered why I felt so all alone I found a seat beside a statueSomebody once a famous man And though his deed was long forgottenHe was standing just as tall as he could stand
