Will She Free Him? (Song)

Will She Free Him?


(i)

He lies alone in his room cold and bare
She left a long time ago
But he doesn't know why she leaves him.
His mind will trace her for millions of miles
Many lovers to come
Will she free him?


(ii)

He'll dine in a cafe and the one he will choose
Won't have a table with wine
But he'll think it's fine
It shall please him.
Through the long lonely night he'll wait in the dark
Alone in his pain
Will she free him?


(iii)

He sits in the station it's raining outside
The wind and the cold never end
Why don't his friends come to see him?
The journey is long not going nowhere
And when he reaches the end
Will she free him?


(Written in my bed-sit in Rathmines, Dublin sometime between 1974 - 1975).
