no one special by John IlotanI am no one special
just a man
who feels too much
I've lost my sense
of sight and sound
I've lost my sense
of touch
But I can feel your heart beat
I can hear it call to me
it beats upon my broken heart
like rain against the sea
and oh, I long to hold you
just to feel your love again
but I'm adrift
too far from shore
to swim back home again
