need help with song

it may be a reach...sometime in 1971.. maybe only locally in the boston area... song containing these words... "i've seen the liars, I've seen the devil, I've seen my friends in disguise as my friends, i've got my fears, i've cried my tears, i'm a lonely man and i keep waiting for the day...
I've been searching for years, if it sounds like anyone, i would say Marmalade...but its not them, just similar...thanks

Try "Waiting for the Day" by Gerry Rafferty (1978)
(Never mind..., I just found the lyrics and they're not a match for your song)

It is also NOT "I'm Waiting for the Day" by The Beach Boys
(At this rate and using the process of elimination, I should be able to ID the song in 20 years)
