He did not look like one of the regular crowd
He seemed a bit misplaced and a little to proud
I asked him did he need a drink or have a name
And He said "It's Jack and I will take the same"
And then above the noise I heard him say
"She left one year ago this very day
I still don't understand and sometimes it don't seem fair
And tonight its more than I can bare"
'Cause even the strong get lonely sometimes and need a friend
But I still got a shot at the pot of gold at the rainbows end
And I couldn't spend the tonight with just her memory again
'Cause even the strong get lonely now and then
It soon became clear from his trembling voice
She did not leave him of her own free choice
A power greater than they both had ever known
Took her and left him all alone
'Cause even the strong get lonely sometimes and need a friend
But I still got a shot at the pot of gold at the rainbows end
And I couldn't spend the tonight with just her memory again
'Cause even the strong get lonely now and then
No I couldn't spend the tonight with just her memory again
'Cause even the strong get lonely now and then
