tango with lions

I wanna meet a friend In a bar tonight The evening is long So long I hardly move A can in my hand A picture in my mind A voice I need to hear, A laugh I need to show We're lonely, babe In a boat, again I need to see a friend tonight Or see the people in a bar I wish they could not see me at all How I wish I could describe their pain Or my pain The mystic light, the choir of smoke The smell of wood, the pose, the joke The dirty little world inside That needs to come out Needs to come out I wanna meet a friend In a bar tonight The evening is long If only I had that strength To see those people, All so lonely as me All so lonely All so lonely as me
