Homunculus

There's a man that lives inside my mind
He's got eyes that see to the end of time
He never needs nothin' at all
He's a lonely man, he walks along
With his head hung down and he's singin' his song
He don't need a whole lotta lovin'
This man never needs nothin'
This man never needs nothin' at all

To him the sky is blue forever
There is no time from then to never
When I ask he tells me so
He's told me twice that love is blind
And I've told him once that I don't mind
And he don't need a whole lotta lovin'
This man never needs nothin'
This man never needs nothin' at all

He told me at the start of spring
There is an end to this beginning
Live it now, it leaves along with fall
He wonders how the wind and rain
Can live so long and stand the pain
And he don't need a whole lotta lovin'
This man never needs nothin'
This man never needs nothin' at all

And I've watched him go as he grew older
With a mind as cold as mine or colder
And he don't need a whole lotta lovin'
This man never needs nothin'
This man never needs nothin' at all
