Spin the globe, stop and start.
Come to a place thats torn apart.
Heres a secret, its my heart,
Oh well,
Its only...
Broken shutters, whistling wind,
Vultures circling overhead,
Tumbleweeds fl y,
Dust in my eyes,
Guess its not my feelings crying.
Peeling paint on empty homes,
Where people lived in this town long ago,
Packed their bags, nailed down the door,
To Lonelytown.
Oh I once had a love of my life,
The sun of my soul.
But I took him for granted,
Ignored all the signs,
And now its just memories and passing ghosts.
Spiderwebs and weeds waist high,
Abandoned schoolyards and rusted wire.
Looking for love,
Looking for life,
In Lonelytown.
If youre lucky with a love of your own.
Remember this in a nutshell Ive told:
Hold them close and dont let go,
And cherish forevermore.
Or you will live in Lonelytown.
