There But for You Go I

This is hard to say, but as I wandered though the lea
I felt for just a fleeting moment that I suddenly was free
Of being lonely then I close my eyes
And saw the very reason why
I saw a man with his head bowed low
His heart had no place to go
I looked and I thought to myself with a sigh
There but for you go I
I saw a man walking by the sea
Alone with the tide was he
I looked and I thought as I watched him go by
There but for you go I
Lonely men around me, trying not to cry
Till the day you found me, there among them was I
I saw a man who had never known
A love that was all his own
I thought as I thanked all the stars in the sky
There but for you go I
