[SAM]
At night when everything is quiet
This old house seems to breathe a sigh
Sometimes I hear a neighbor snoring
Sometimes I hear a baby cry
Sometimes I hear a staircase creaking
Sometimes a distant telephone
And when the night settles down again
The house and I are all alone

Lonely house, lonely me
Funny with so many neighbors
How lonely you can be
Lonely street, lonely town
Funny you can feel so lonely
With all these folks around

I guess there must be something
That I don't comprehend
Sparrows have companions
Even stray dogs find a friend

The night for me is not romantic
Unhook the stars and take them down
I'm lonely in this lonely house
In this lonely town
The night for me is not romantic
Unhook the stars and take them down
I'm lonely in this lonely house
In this lonely town
