Lonely
Lonely little candle on a lonely dinner table.
And a lonely set of flowers wilted looking feeble
And a lonely attempt to cross a dotted line.
But the line it just gets longer most every time.
She had eyes that looked like taillights in a car packed full
Because objects look closer in the rearview.
Where she thinks she’s headed is anybody’s guess.
It just confirms that other people are the biggest wilderness.
Get lonely, lonely, lonely, alone. Ain’t nothing like a woman gonna make you feel so lonesome.
Lonely, lonely, lonely, alone. Ain’t nothing like a woman gonna make you feel so lonely.
Say hey, hey, hey.
Hey, hey, hey.
A lonely conversation on the telephone
When the lonely family members get political again.
Lonely attempt try to share some blood.
But it gets awfully lonely when the blood is all you got.
Because a house is not a home until you share a room.
And until you do you ain’t gonna have nowhere you can run to.
‘cause it don’t take much to make a family.
It’s just a choice made every day.
Lonely, lonely, lonely, alone. Ain’t nothing like a woman gonna make you feel so lonesome.
Lonely, lonely, lonely, alone. Ain’t nothing like a woman gonna make you feel so lonely.
Lonely, lonely, lonely, alone. (Say hey, hey, hey) Ain’t nothing like a woman gonna make you feel so lonely. (Hey, hey, hey)
Ain’t it awful funny that the closest ones we got
Are often times the hardest ones there are to talk to
We all make the same faces while we make the same mistakes
It’s a vicious circle come around and bite you.
‘Cause there ain’t no trouble like a child or a lover.
It’s a trouble rooted deep as you can breathe.
It’s the world’s biggest gamble with the world’s highest stakes.
You can stay and play or leave.
Lonely, lonely, lonely, alone. Ain’t nothing like a woman gonna make you feel so lonesome.
Lonely, lonely, lonely, alone. Ain’t nothing like a woman gonna make you feel so lonely.
Say hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey.
