(Jimmy Gateley)

Lonely is everything you said it would be.

A cup of coffee by myself starts off my day
With eyes so red from crying I can't see
The minutes seem like hours since you went away
Yes, lonely is everything you said it would be.

You said that I'd be sorry for the things I've done
That someday it would all come back to me
Well, you were right I'm payin' now for all my fun
And lonely is everything you said it would be.

The telephone at my house doesn't ring anymore
And there's never any letters left for me
Old friends we knew don't come by like they did before
Yes, lonely is everything you said it would be.

You said that I'd be sorry for the things I've done
That someday it would all come back to me
Well, you were right I'm payin' now for all my fun.
And lonely is everything you said it would be...
