A Linda Song

He never wrote a song for Linda
 he wrote as though he lived alone
 he wrote of dreams that end of sad brave men
 inventing worlds he never known
 but he never wrote a song for Linda
 and she was right there all along
 loved him back to life
 when his luck ran low
 but he never wrote a Linda song
 he nearly broke his heart at writing
 Linda kept him from despair
 standing by his side, through the hungry days
 but he hardly seemed to see her there
 and he never wrote a song for Linda
 and she was right there all along
 the one real thing in his crazy world
 and he never wrote a Linda song
 when the bills piled up and couldn't pay
 he couldn't dream no more
 so he hitched a ride and he road away
 and he left a note for Linda by the door
 by the door
 when times got rough he'd phone her
 once or twice she took the call
 then she changed her number and she turned her head
 and Linda never looked back at all
 he'll never write a song for Linda
 and she was right there all along
 all he knows, is no one understands
 and he never wrote a Linda song
 no he never wrote a Linda song
