Now my room has got two windows
But the sunshine [bad word] through
You know it’s always dark and dreary
Since I broke off, baby, with you

I live on Lonely Avenue
My little girl wouldn’t say ‘I do’
So I’ll try, I’ll try, I’ll try
Yes, I’ll cry, I’ll cry, I’ll cry
Someone hear me, Lord

Now my covers, they feel like lead
And my pillow, it feels like stone
Well, I’ve tossed and turned so every night
I’m not used to being alone

I live on Lonely Avenue
My little girl wouldn’t say ‘I do’
And I’ll cry, I’ll cry, I’ll cry
Yes, I’ll try, I’ll try, I’ll try

Someone hear me, Lord
Someone hear
Someone hear me, Lord
Someone hear

Stand in love, don’t fall in love

Now my room has got two windows
But the sunshine [bad word] through
You know it’s always dark and dreary
Since I broke off, baby, with you

I live on Lonely Avenue
My little girl wouldn’t say ‘I do’
So I’ll cry, I’ll cry, I’ll cry
Yes, I’ll try, I’ll try, I’ll try
Someone hear me, Lord

I said I’ll try, I’ll try, I’ll try
And I’ll cry, I’ll cry, I’ll cry
Someone hear me, Lord
Someone hear

If someone gone ill
As I would say it again
Stand in love, don’t fall in love
