Lonely |
||
| 1 | See you walking down the street | |
| 2 | Smiling at everybody you meet... | |
| 3 | Looking like you're having a ball; | |
| 4 | Laughing and talking and loving it all | |
| 5 |
But you're lonely. |
|
| 6 | See you when you're out to play... | |
| 7 | Glance my direction and turn away. | |
| 8 | Dancing with your new lover in the latest style... | |
| 9 |
Seeking refuge behind that impeccable smile. |
|
| 10 | Oh, I know, | |
| 11 | That's the way it goes... | |
| 12 | It's not easy, but I can tell | |
| 13 |
What you work so hard to hide so well. |
|
| 14 | See you get home late every night... | |
| !5 | With someone new to hold you tight. | |
| 16 | Have another drink, another cigarette... | |
| 17 | You're lying awake 'cause you can't forget | |
| 18 |
That you're lonely. |
|
| 19 | Oh, I know | |
| 20 | That's the way it goes... | |
| 21 | It's not easy, but I can tell | |
| 22 |
What you work so hard to hide so well. |
|
| 23 | See you wake up - it's another day... | |
| 24 | You try to talk, but there's nothing to say. | |
| 25 | Call up some friends on the telephone... | |
| 26 | Try to get something together to keep from being alone. | |
