            This song was written by two friends of mine here in New York. They asked me to perform it at a concert recently and, later, asked if I would put it here on YouTube. I wish we'd had the original footage, since I really liked the space -- but we didn't, so this was a new performance.

I'm sure both composers would appreciate whatever comments and constructive feedback you guys have to offer.

"It Gets Lonely"
(Copyright 2008, Cooper & Caruso Music,

It gets lonely
so, so lonely
Surrounded by all these people
With important things to do

It gets lonely
so, so lonely
Surrounded by all these people
When none of them are you.

The meetings they are running late for
And the calls they need to take
Syncing calendars and appointments
on their cigarette break.
Blinking schedules and reminders
and the emails BCC'd
Wanting things they're never getting.
Getting things they'll never need.

It gets lonely
so, so lonely
Surrounded by all these people
With important things to do

It gets lonely
so, so lonely
Surrounded by all these people
When none of them are you.

Feels like I'm moving in slow motion
Or am I standing still?
In an ocean filled with taxi cabs
and people dressed to kill.
As their watches tick the hours
diamond dangling from their ears.
Like a symphony of silence.
Making music no one hears.

It wouldn't be this hard for me
if I knew you were still mine.
I tell myself I'm doing better
I tell myself I'm doing fine.

It gets lonely
so, so lonely
Surrounded by all these people
With important things to do

It gets lonely
so, so lonely
Surrounded by all these people
But none of them are you.
None of them are you.
