As Far as Lonely Goes

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Underneath the neon sign of Harry's Bar and Grill Someone hugs a bottle to take away the chill Oh, but the wind still blows Carries his sleeping soul As far as lonely goes [Verse 2] Upstairs in a penthouse behind a golden door Someone's drinking pink champagne to keep from being bored Between the highs and lows The icy wind still blows As far as lonely goes [Chorus] You would never buy a bottle To wash away your troubles If you could buy a suitcase for your soul You would make a pretty package Of all your extra baggage Lock it up and send it down the road As far as lonely goes [Verse 3] From the has-beens to the haves From the mansions to the alleys from the riches to the rags Underneath our clothes We're all the same, you know As far as lonely goes [Saxophone Solo] [Chorus] I would never buy a bottle To wash away my troubles If I could buy a suitcase for my soul I would make a pretty package Of all my extra baggage Lock it up and send it down the road As far as lonely goes As far as lonely goes
