[Verse 1]
Why must I love the heartless one
Who'll never know the harm she's done?
Though love is blind, I should have known
Just call me lonesome from now on

[Verse 2]
I climb the stairs up to my room
But no one meets me in my gloom
The silence tells me she is gone
Just call me lonesome from now on

[Guitar & Slide Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
These walls will hide me when I cry
And hope that heaven lets me die
What good is life when hope is gone?
Just call me lonesome from now on

[Verse 4]
I prayed my memories at last
Will fade into the distant past
If I must live and love alone
Just call me lonesome from now on
