That’s What the Lonely is For by David Wilcox

My divorced daughter and almost-divorced son and I have been talking a lot about loneliness lately.  In one conversation I recalled this song that I listened to constantly about 25 years ago during a period I felt extremely lonely – as we all do at times.

Favorite lyric:

When I get lonely, it’s only a sign.

Some room is empty, that room is there by design.

If I feel hollow, that’s just my proof that there’s more for me to follow:

That’s that the lonely is for.
