The Lonely Guy

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You left me standin' in the pouring rain But I don't even know your name Now all I've got is memories I think of how it used to be Your head upon my pillow case I still can't quite recall your face The filter of a cigarette Reminds me of a sweet regret [Pre-Chorus] And only the memory of you Keeps my heart still alive, it will survive And only the memory of you Keeps me wonderin' if I might see you again tonight [Chorus] Let's go out tonight Take me where it's shiny and bright Somewhere we can do what we like Baby, it'll be alright I said let's go out tonight Get drunk and maybe get in a fight Maybe one day I'll get a life You never know what you're gonna find [Verse 2] I try to call you on the telephone I get a disconnected tone I'm sure I wrote it down that night Perhaps I didn't hear you right Now all I've got's an empty pain And just another linen stain You got me down upon my knees Is this the way it has to be? [Pre-Chorus] And only the memory of you Keeps my heart still alive, it will survive And only the memory of you Keeps me wonderin' if I might see you again tonight [Chorus] Let's go out tonight Take me where it's shiny and bright Somewhere we can do what we like Baby, it'll be alright I said let's go out tonight Get drunk and maybe get in a fight Come on, it'll be outta sight Until then you can give me a light [Outro] Let's go out tonight Unloneliness can be so kind I think I could be losing my mind And let me tell it to you one more time I said let's go out tonight And baby, it'll be alright And everything's gonna be fine I'll make it just like when you were mine
