A Man Needs A Woman

No one knows a man needs a woman better than a man who does not have one.

I got my job
I make enough to get by
My bills are paid
I own my own place
But every night when I come home
I look around and I'm alone
A Man Needs A Woman

I got some friends
We hang out together
It's baseball games
Karaoke bars
But when they turn out the lights
And you've got to face the night
A Man Needs A Woman

This loneliness surrounds me
As I rise from my bed
The Waffle House
Has become my second home
They turn around to look
As I walk through the door
They're desperate
I see it in their eyes

The sun comes up
I tell myself I must go on
Who could she be?
This woman that I need
This emptiness inside me
Is more than I can stand
A Man Needs A Woman

It appears that the difference is a line at the end that doesn't rhyme.Have I got that much right?(after reexamining the lyric,that's not all that's different from ABAB.If I was working with a guitar player I could probably figure it out better.(or find a better excuse!)

The last line of each paragraph is the title of the song. It doesn't have to rhyme.

Hi guys If a song needs a strong rhythm rhyme is easier, otherwise DOUG(!) a strong bassguitar or/and a fine drumsupport.
In popmusic (and often rock too) rhyme seems to prevail. Metal , rap, trance and punk are a different story, I'd say.

By the way: loneliness is a theme which needs another 1001 songs: it's a frightful thought especially realizing how many people
suffer from it!
Thanks, Jim, for "attacking" it openly.
