Forgotten Man by The Nova Local Lyrics

Walking alone
What has he shown for a hard day's work done on the road going home?
Where has he been?
No one there seemed to recall if it all was worth it to begin

Day after day, it’s the same shaking hands
Hear people say, "What's his name? Was it Sam?"
The forgotten man

Not long ago
His was a face he could say everywhere all the people would know
Look at him now
Wiping the sweat as it pours from the folds of his wrinkled old brow

Day after day, it's the same shaking hands
Hear people say, "What’s his name? Was it Sam?"
The forgotten man can't understand

Life sends you away
Hear the people say
There's a man who lives in dreams
Only dream about it
Can't do much about, it seems
And so it goes
One day he'll learn what was meant by the life he has spent, no one knows
Here comes the sun
Lightening the void in the man, dealt a hand I would wish on no one

Day after day, it's the same shaking hands
Hear people say, "What's his name? Was it Sam?"
The forgotten man
