	Story Behind the Song This song is loosely based on a homeless man we knew from the old neighborhood. As kids we'd talk to him and try to get his story and he would show us cool stuff he found in the alleys. We dubbed him the "lonely guy" and it seemed his full employment was walking up and down 26th Street (Chicago) the main drag in our neighborhood. In later years when writing this song it occurred to us that this guy could have been anybody or more correctly the situation in which he found himself could happen to anybody (Even You!) either by happenstance or circumstance. Lyrics I Wonder (Words and Music by Sergio Escobedo) Sitting by the lake Waiting for my girl When I saw this man walking towards me Dragging his poor feet Holding in his hands An old shopping bad Seemed all that he had Chorus: Oh I wonder, how I wonder Once was so young, now so very old Oh I wonder, how I wonder Once with a future now history Looks so tired Seemed so hungry Must've had a home Now it's anywhere Once had a future Maybe once a life Now in a world A world of his very own Chorus Seemed to not care Where he would go Will never find a friend Till the very end Once had a mother Maybe once a dad Now he's alone Just so very sad Chorus
