Friends & Strangers

A room full of strangers
A room full of friends
What is the difference
When you’re all alone

The room humming
Conversation flowing
You look across the room
A wink, somebody noticed

The loneliness of the crowd
At home when you don’t fit
But somebody will notice
And give a knowing smile

Suddenly you’re not alone
In a room full of strangers
But very alone in thoughts
In a room full of friends
