Lonely House
At night, when everything is quiet
This old house seems to breathe a sigh
Sometimes I hear a neighbor snoring
Sometimes I hear a baby cry
Sometimes I hear a staircase creaking
Sometimes a distant telephone
And then the quiet settles down again
The house and I are all alone
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy paste is a sin
Lonely house, lonely me
Funny, with so many neighbors
How lonely it can be
Oh lonely street, lonely town
Funny, you can be so lonely
With all these folks around
I guess there must be something
I don't comprehend
Sparrows have companions
Even stray dogs find a friend
That night for me is not romantic
Unhook the stars and take them down
I'm lonely in this lonely house
In this lonely town
This old house seems to breathe a sigh
Sometimes I hear a neighbor snoring
Sometimes I hear a baby cry
Sometimes I hear a staircase creaking
Sometimes a distant telephone
And then the quiet settles down again
The house and I are all alone
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy paste is a sin
Lonely house, lonely me
Funny, with so many neighbors
How lonely it can be
Oh lonely street, lonely town
Funny, you can be so lonely
With all these folks around
I guess there must be something
I don't comprehend
Sparrows have companions
Even stray dogs find a friend
That night for me is not romantic
Unhook the stars and take them down
I'm lonely in this lonely house
In this lonely town
