Lonely teardrops you’ve been crying
I hear them fall
In the night the empty night
I hear your song
It goes right through me
It used to move me
Lonely, lonely

Lonely Paris, met a dancer
We did the stroll
Through the night the empty night
Four years ago
I thought she knew me
She gave it to me
Lonely, lonely

I seem to see a rose
I reach out then it goes
Now in its thorns I roll
The sky is grey and I am cold
Lord I tell you, Lord I tell you
All I want to do is get back home

Lonely teardrops we did shoot them
They came on strong
Vials of rain to kill the pain
So far from home
I thought you knew me
You did it to me
Lonely, lonely

Lonely teardrops I’ve been crying
All week long
Love is willing but the bed is cold
Goodbye Laurence
I thought I knew you
What good did that do
Lonely, lonely

I seem to see a rose
I reach out then it goes
Now in its thorns I roll
You never know until you know
Lord I ask you, Lord I beg you
All I want to do is get back home

Lonely teardrops lonely teardrops
Lonely teardrops lonely teardrops
Lonely teardrops lonely teardrops
Lonely teardrops
