Tears keep rolling down your cheek you your voice gets talk so you can`t speak
Every day seems like a week and that`s what it`s like to be lonesome
You get too blue to stay at home but in a crowd you`re still alone
You lose the will to carry on and that`s what it`s like to be lonesome
Everyone has a hope that`s died everyone cries a tear inside
Everyone has a cross to bear but I`ve got no one in my share
Your mind is built with memories your heart cries out for sympathy
An empty blue eternity and that`s what it`s like to be lonesome
[ fiddle - steel ]
Everyone has a hope that`s died...
