(Johnny Paycheck - Bobby Austin)

(One never knows the depth of love until the hour of separation
Here I am walkin' along quiet streets
Pass places of business and shops that swarm with people during the day
But this time of mornin' all is still and even the buildings seem asleep
As if they were resting for another day of hussel and bussel
Up that block was our place but now it's just a number.)

Just follow the stairway
To this lonely world of mine
You'll find me waiting here
In Apartment No. 9.

Not so very long ago
You walked away from me
And after all the plans we made
You decided to be free.

Loneliness surrounds me
Without your arms around me
And the sun will never shine
In Apartment No. 9.

--- Instrumental ---

I keep waiting in this lonely room
Just in case you change your mind
You'll find me waiting here
In Apartment No. 9.

Loneliness surrounds me
Without your arms around me
And the sun will never shine
In Apartment No. 9...
