Lyrics

When you ain't got nobody, then nobody ever says goodbye.
You don't have to wait for someone to
make you laugh or make you cry

Wish I were only lonely.
Just kind of ordinary blue.
If I were only lonely then maybe I'd know what to do.
But I'm helpless cause I'm lonely for you.

I sleep in a bed so empty,
it's an emptiness no one can fill.
I may have to go on living,
but life without you ain't no thrill.

Repeat Chorus
