In England, loneliness among the elderly is so prevalent, a portfolio was created for The Minister For Loneliness, Tracey Crouch. Loneliness can have a profound effect on one's health and well-being. Reach out and make a difference.

lyrics

The Minister Of Loneliness J.Shea

I’m beside myself, but I’m not here
My thoughts are with me
I’m lost in a crowd but I’m alone
No place I have to be

I haven’t talked to friends or family
It’s been a coupla weeks
Conversations go on in my head
I don’t need to speak

Chorus
But the Minister of Loneliness
Is nowhere to be found
The Minister of Loneliness skipped town

In my loneliness I’m not alone
So many feel it too
I think that there ought to be a law
I don’t know what to do

Chorus

They say she’s gone out looking for songs
To start the healing
If it breaks all my bones I’ll write my own
A song with some feeling

Chorus
