Occasional Loneliness

When occasional loneliness comes upon me, 

I need to manage it 

to avoid succumbing to depression. 

So, I always reach out to find 

something or someone to engage with 

to create a feeling of non-loneliness, 

such as going to watch an action movie. 

Sometimes, I will find a friend 

to have a drink or yum cha. 

It often happens that the friend 

who comes to meet me tells me that 

he is experiencing occasional loneliness, 

and he is very happy that 

I came to his rescue at the right time 

to create a feeling of non-loneliness for him.

Mree - Kiki's Song

Up in the clouds, 

I am free, I am open

The start of a life on my own 

(on my own)

Way down below, little town full of people

People that I'd like to know

With a peck on the cheek and 

a bag full of pastries

The goodies I bring on the bend

One last goodbye and 

a turn to my family

All waving like birds on the fence

Oh, I make my way down 

with a smile to the market

Saying, "Good morning, good day"

But oh, when I wake up alone, 

there are tears on my pillow

No use in dreaming today

But I'm wild (I am wild), 

I am free (I am free)

Like a fire in the dark, 

I am turning the key

And in time (and in time), 

I will see (I will see)

I have everything I want, 

I have all that I need

Like a leaf in summer dreams

I'm floating back to you

Oh, lay with me in melodies

All humming back for you

Oh, like a leaf in summer dreams

I'm floating back to you

Oh, lay with me in melodies

All humming back for you

Oh, like a leaf in summer dreams

I'm floating back to you

Oh, lay with me in melodies

All humming back for you
