[Verse 1]
The good times come and go
But the bad times take a hold
Every chance they get
And when you're hurt inside
It's an easy ride
Down that amber current cold and fast
Into that glass of ice

[Chorus]
When lonely calls
It's my name that it's shouting
It's my strength that it's doubting
It's my mind that it's clouding
And like an old friend, I'll come running
Tears and all
When lonely calls

[Verse 2]
Tomorrow's hard to tell
But if I don't feel like hell
I'll put my best smile on
And I'll head to town
And I'll find the crowd
And I'll laugh and dance and sing out loud
'Til lonely comes around
[Chorus]
When lonely calls
It's my name that it's shouting
It's my strength that it's doubting
It's my mind that it's clouding
And like an old friend, I'll come running
Tears and all
When lonely calls

[Bridge]
The good times come and go
But the bad times take a hold
Every chance they get
And when you're hurt inside
It's an easy ride
Down that amber current, cold and fast
Into that glass of ice

[Chorus]
When lonely calls
It's my name that it's shouting
It's my strength that it's doubting
It's my mind that it's clouding
And like an old friend, I'll come running
Tears and all
When lonely calls
When lonely calls
