So Sad And Lonely lyrics
I know these old people
Too bad to see
Them sittin by the windows
So sad and lonely
I kinow and old man
Now he' really old
He don't now his name
Or what he's been told
He had lots of friends
Yeah, He had a full life
No his memories failed
And he don't know his wife
Yeah,,,
I know these old people
To bad to see
Them sitting by the window
Soo sad and lonely
Sittin by the window
So sad and lonely
Sittin by the window
So sad and lonely

More about Hornby Island
Hornby Island of British Columbia, Canada, is a Salish Sea island located near Vancouver Island's Comox Valley.
A small community of 958 residents (as of the 2011 census), Hornby is home to many artists, retired professionals, small business owners, remote workers, and young families who share a love of rural island life. Over the past 30 years, the island has become a coveted destination and its population easily quadruples in size during the summer months. The shoulder seasons are a preferred time for hiking, mountain biking, marine activities, weddings, and retreats. Most people reach the island by ferries from Buckley Bay, Vancouver Island. A growing number of private boats also visit through mooring at the Ford Cove Marina or anchoring at Tribune Bay. The closest airport is Comox Valley Airport in Comox, which provides regional, national, and international service.
The primary destinations[according to whom?] on Hornby are Tribune Bay Provincial Park, Helliwell Provincial Park, Ford's Cove, Heron Rocks and Whaling Station Bay. The island is also a popular mountain biking destination, with a variety of designated trails in Mount Geoffrey Regional Nature Park, Mount Geoffrey Escarpment Provincial Park and Crown Land. The total land area is 29.92 square kilometres (11.55 sq mi), of which 40% is parkland.
