Lonely Boy
J.Kenney © 2012
re-recorded 5-5-17


Keep your feet on the ground
take one step at a time - you're told
Pushing brings it all down
End up losing your mind - out in the cold

Lonely boy - trying to get it right
Lonely boy - slow down a bit tonight

Summer turned into fall
Didn't figure so much - lay ahead
Winter blew into town
You're the last one around - so they said

Lonely boy - you're finally settling down
Lonely boy - now look what you have found

This never happened to you
it can't be real
They must mean somebody else
not too sure what you're supposed to feel

Lonely boy - trying to get it right
Lonely boy - slow down a bit tonight

Lonely boy - you're finally settling down
Lonely boy - now look what you have found

John,

This has a very cool retro feel to it. Great mix and vocal - I really enjoyed this.

John, great delivery, excellent use of the harmonies, and the electric piano gave a great presence to the song.

Ideal tempo for the style, and very beautiful lyrics.

Thanks for sharing.

Wow! great song John

I don't remember hearing this before.

Would anyone be surprised to know that we

cut our teeth on Eagles songs?

That influence and your own great style make this a standout.

Hi John,

Another really nice song from you. You're quickly one of our favorites here. Smooth as warm butter - and much more pleasing. We could hear the eagles doing this at a slightly faster tempo. The Calypso influence was a real good choice for your guitar tracks. Smooth and comfy in our ears. Nice!
