Pecos & the Rooftops
Lonely With You
I'm lonely when I'm with you
I can't see the light
And the words you speak, they ain't the truth
Not tryin' to fight
I'm just tellin' you that I'm through
With all the torture and lies
And the way you think that you can rule
What I do in my life
Is why I'm lonely when I'm with you
Bein' with you is like an empty room
Where I can't help but think or feel blue
You made me what I'm not, but I'm still a fool
Bein' with you drains a lot of my veins
And I don't have the patience for all your games
That you like to put me through
That's okay 'cause I know you're lonely too
And it's sad, but true
I'm lonely when I'm with you
I can't see the light
And the words you speak, they ain't the truth
I'm not tryin' to fight
I'm just tellin' you that I'm through
With all the torture and lies
And the way you think that you can rule
What I do in my life
Is why I'm lonely when I'm with you
Well, I was lookin' for a home, but all I had was a ghost
It replaced all the love that once held so close
And it haunts my thoughts and I can't sleep at night
The woman I see, she ain't the same
'Cause her dark brown eyes have lost the flame
Used to burn so bright and we loved 'til the sun would sink
Baby, I'm sorry if you fell in love with me
'Cause I'm here, it's plain to see
You're lonely when you're with me
Your smile ain't as bright
And your hands are cooler than they used to be
See right through my shit when I say I'm on your team
You're the one that I see in my dreams
