Phil Collins - Man On The Corner Lyrics

Man on the corner

See the lonely man there on the corner,
what he's waiting for, I don't know
But he waits everyday now,
he's just waiting for something to show
And nobody knows him and nobody cares,
cos there's no hiding place
There's no hiding place, for you

Looking everywhere at no one,
he sees everything and nothing at all, oh
When he shouts nobody listens
where he leads no one will go, oh
He's a lonely man, there on the corner,
what he's waiting for, I don't know
But he waits everyday now,
he's just waiting for something to show, oh

Nobody knows him and nobody cares,
cos there's no hiding place
There's no hiding place,
for you and me are we just like all the rest
We're looking too hard for something
he's got or moving too fast to rest
But like a monkey on your back you need it,
but do you love it enough to leave it

Ah just like the lonely man there on the corner,
what he's waiting for, I don't know, oh
But he waits every day now,
he's just waiting for that something to show, oh
Who's the lonely man there on the corner,
what he's waiting for, I don't know
But he's there every day
now and he's just waiting for something to show, oh

Who's the lonely man there on the corner,
what he's waiting for, I don't know
Oh but he waits every day now,
he's just waiting for that something to show
