I like it    I don't like it

When you ain't got nobody

Then nobody ever says goodbye

You don't have to wait for someone

To make you laugh or make you cry

Wish I were only lonely

Just kind of ordinary blue

If I were only lonely

Then maybe I'd know what to do

But I'm helpless 'cause I'm lonely for you

I sleep in a bed so empty

It's an emptiness no one can fill

I may have to go on living

But life without you ain't no thrill

[Repeat Chorus]

Well, whoever said it's better

To love and to lose

He ought to be right here in my shoes

[Repeat Chorus
