It's Lonely I Can't Stand

It's Lonely I Can't Stand - Charlie Major

Lyricist：Barry Brown/Charlie Major

Composer：Barry Brown/Charlie Major

I took the long way home tonight down a lonely road

No riders no company just me and the radio

One by one I watched the miles slowly fall behind

My heart weighing heavy knowing what I wouldn't find

The moon over my shoulder and the stars up in the sky

There to remind me what's missing tonight

I don't mind being alone it's lonely I can't stand

These empty nights ain't no life for a woman nor a man

It's been so long since I held or felt the touch of a loving hand

Being alone ain't so bad it's lonely I can't stand

Staring out my window now at the world passing me by

Trapped here in this darkness doing solitary time

Across the open fields I hear the soulful sad refrain

The high lonesome wailing of some distant midnight train

The sound of my heart beating and the silence in these rooms

They're to remind me what's missing tonight

I don't mind being alone it's lonely I can't stand

These empty nights ain't no life for a woman nor a man

It's been so long since I held or felt the touch of a loving hand

Being alone ain't so bad it's lonely I can't stand

It's just another night on the one hand

On the other it cuts like a knife

I don't mind being alone it's lonely I can't stand

These empty nights ain't no life for a woman nor a man

It's been so long since I held or felt the touch of a loving hand

Being alone ain't so bad it's lonely I can't stand

Lonely I can't stand

Lonely I can't stand

So alone

So so alone
