Long about now I am thinking
Is there anyway to stop lonely
The meaning of low just keeps right on sinking
And it's to late to say if only

It can happen as fast as I can look out a window
And my eyes are amazed to see the barren ground
No matter what I do or where I go
Lonely will be there to bring me down

And it will come to pass on some moonlit night
I'll look around and see my shadow is the one and only
Long about now I'll think of some words to write
But they won't help me to stop lonely
