One Lonely Night by REO Speedwagon has always seemed to me to have that slightly haunting quality about it. It tells us that one lonely night is all it takes to completely break a person.
For some reason, the song always reminded me of the millions of people all over the world who live lives of quiet loneliness, day after day, for years.
What does the loneliness do to them?
How does it unravel them?
And the rest of us, who are not in their shoes, might never even recognise the agonies they live on a daily basis.

True! Only the lonely know what it means. Rest of us can guess but never fully understand.
