Lonely teardrops you’ve been crying   I hear them fall   In the night the empty night   I hear your song   It goes right through me   It used to move me   Lonely, lonely      Lonely Paris, met a dancer   We did the stroll   Through the night the empty night   Four years ago   I thought she knew me   She gave it to me   Lonely, lonely      I seem to see a rose   I reach out then it goes   Now in its thorns I roll   The sky is grey and I am cold   Lord I tell you, Lord I tell you   All I want to do is get back home      Lonely teardrops we did shoot them   They came on strong   Vials of rain to kill the pain   So far from home   I thought you knew me   You did it to me   Lonely, lonely      Lonely teardrops I’ve been crying   All week long   Love is willing but the bed is cold   Goodbye Laurence   I thought I knew you   What good did that do   Lonely, lonely      I seem to see a rose   I reach out then it goes   Now in its thorns I roll   You never know until you know   Lord I ask you, Lord I beg you   All I want to do is get back home      Lonely teardrops lonely teardrops   Lonely teardrops lonely teardrops   Lonely teardrops lonely teardrops   Lonely teardrops
