Killing the Beast
The old fellow was just lonely and tired.
This life had nothing left it was death he desired.
He had lost his wife a couple years back.
He lived all alone down by the track.
No one ever visited are called on the phone.
Just another lonely old soul that lived all alone.
Then one day he drove into town.
To pick up some things and just look around.
There he met a lady he knew years ago.
Well they talked and they talked it was good don’t you know?
She said we’ll have to do this again as they started to part.
He left there that day with a different feeling in his old heart.
It was the first time he smiled he knew in awhile.
For sadness had been all that he knew, he thought it his style.
When he got to the house he picked up the phone, guess what he did?
He called his new friend and they talked just like kids.
Well it wasn’t to long till their friendship did grow.
For she had been in the same boat with nowhere to go.
Well they dated a little but they both wanted this.
They were tired of being alone and he proposed after their kiss.
She said yes, yes, yes just any old day.
So they found them a preacher and I do’s they did say.
Now they’re together they beat that lonely beast.
To see their smiling faces you know they’re happy at least.
