from album: A Man Alone & Other Songs Of Rod McKuen (1969). In me, you see a man alone Held by the habit of being on his own A man who listens to the trembling of the trees With sentimental ease. In me, you see a man alone Behind the wall he's learned to call his home A man who still goes walkin' in the rain Expecting love again. A man not lonely except when the dark comes on A man learning to live with mem'ries of midnights that fell apart at dawn. In me, you see a man alone Drinking up Sundays and spending them alone A man who knows love is seldom what it seems Only other.

Always alone, at home or in a crowd, A single man off on his private cloud, 'Cause in a world that few men understand, I am what I am, the single ma. Before a broken heart felt incomplete and in desperate need of solace, craving the comfort of perfumed arms holding him in the moonlight. But now that comfort can be found in himself. Nice compilation of Rod McKuen’s songs as interpreted by Ol’ Blue Eyes himself.

Unlike most poets, Rod McKuen was extremely popular and successful, selling over a million copies of his books in the late '60s. After meeting at a party, the singer decided to record an entire album of the poet's verse and music. McKuen wrote a selection of new songs and poems for Sinatra; that material became A Man Alone. McKuen's musical contributions amount to tone poems more than songs.
