Lonesome

lyrics

WHEN YOU’RE LONESOME


When you’re lonesome
I sit in the street and I spy
When you’re lonesome
I’d like to call your name but I’m shy
When you’re alone
When you’re alone
I sneak ‘round your place

When you’re lonesome
I still watch, hooked and sly
When you’re lonesome
I hang on to your every sigh
When you’re alone
When you’re alone
I see you sniffin’ some lace


Not just a pretty face, you look for some grace
That you (seem to) seek in (the dark bounds of) an empty space
I know you never pulled the ace, you never won a race
What you need now is just a mad embrace


When you’re lonesome
Your rare smiles are so wry
When you’re lonesome
You cannot help but cry.
When you’re alone
When you’re alone
I sneak ‘round your place

When you’re lonesome, Babe
You love only once you get high
When you’re lonesome
Your eyes tell your life is a dark lie
When you’re alone
When you’re alone
I see you sniffin’ some lace


Not just a pretty face, you look for some grace
That you (seem to) seek in (the dark bounds of) an empty space
I know you never pulled the ace, you never won a race
What you need now is just a long embrace
