Please Send Me Someone

by Fred Applegate

Lyrics
(The remote cottage of an aging blind hermit in the mountainous hills somewhere above Transylvania heights. The hermit, with a cane in hand, stands outside)
HERMIT: Oh, Lord, please take pity!
I'm blind and oh so lonely!
Someone
Send me someone
I need someone
Who will care
Someone
Send me someone
A friend to end despair
Someone to comfort my soul
Someone to make my life whole
Can you hear me?
Someone
I'm praying for someone
I'm saying there's someone
Out there for me!
Each night I'm yearning
Tossing and turning
Dreaming my dream comes true!
Someone
Please send me someone
I'm so blue
Oh Lordy. Look down on your poor blind hermit.
It's been so long since I felt the touch of someone's hand,
So long since I heard the sound of someone's voice.
Each night, all I hear is the wind in the trees, and if I'm lucky, an owl or maybe... a cricket.
Oh, Lord, let's face it, we're talkin' LONELY here.
Can you hear me?
Someone
I'm praying for someone
I'm saying there's someone
Out there for me
Each night I'm yearning
Tossing and turning
Dreaming my dream comes true!
Someone
Please send me someone
Dear God, send someone
(the monster suddenly crashes through the wall)
Thank you!
