lonely man

barış manço’nun 1975’te belçika’da yaptığı barış mancho isimli albümünde yer alan ingilizce şarkısı. sözler barış manço’ya ait, müzik ise aşık veysel’in uzun ince bir yoldayım türküsünün müziğidir. sözleri de böyle:

years ago,
i dreamt of the life i’d lead
years ago,
i thought of the things i’d do
years ago,
i dreamt of the girl i’d love

when i grew older
to be the young man
to be the grown man
to take my place in the world

lonely... lonely...
i’m a lonely, lonely man
lonely... lonely...
i’m a lonely, lonely man

i grew up,
went to walk an left my dreams.
i grew up,
found than life has hidden sides
i grew up,
tested things with my own hands

then i met the young girl,
to share my story,
to love and marry,
and proudly carry to my home

lonely... lonely...
i’m a lonely, lonely man
lonely... lonely...
i’m a lonely, lonely man

as years passed
i learnt that love doesn’t fast.
as years passed,
i saw life’s not what it seems.
as years passed,
i have gone back to my dreams.

but my dreams grew sadder,
and know i feel old.
my heart has grown cold,
and the story’s told of my life.

lonely...
oh...oh, i’m so lonely
i’m lonely...
lonely man

elvis presley’in de bu ada sahip bi sarkisi varmis.

it’s a lonely man
who wanders all around
it’s a lonely man
who roams from town to town
searchin, always searchin
for something he can’t find
hopin, always hopin
that some day fate will be kind

it’s a lonely man
who travels all alone
when he has no one
that he can call his own

always so unhappy
taking shelter where he can
here i am
come meet a lonely, lonely man

always so unhappy
taking shelter where he can
here i am
come meet a lonely, lonely man

here i am
come meet a lonely, lonely man
