Lonely Afternoon - Shakatak

An old man walks along the path

It isn´t raining anymore

The hotel sign reflects upon a lorry parked below

A kid goes walking home from school

And stands there at the door

Behind the windows people sit waiting

For the bus to go

Another long, lonely afternoon away from you

And a long dark lonely night ahead

It´s been a long, lonely afternoon here on my own

Such a long dark lonely night ahead

The heavy clouds are forming for

Another day dark and rainy night

A woman hurries home before the storm begins

To break

And as she turns to cross the street

Waiting for the walking light

She glances quickly at her watch

Hoping that she won´t be late

Another long, lonely afternoon away from you

And a long dark lonely night ahead

It´s been a long lonely afternoon here on my own

Such a long dark lonely night ahead
