( - A. Lanier - ) Lonely teardrops, you been crying I hear them fall In the night the empty night I hear your song It goes right through me It used to move me (Lonely, lonely) Lonely Paris, met a dancer We did the stroll Through the night the empty night Four years ago I thought you know me She gave it to me (Lonely, lonely) CHORUS: I seem to see a rose I reach out then it goes Now in its thorns I roam The sky is grey and I am cold Lord I tell you, Lord I tell you All I want to do is get back home Lonely teardrops, we did shoot them They came on strong Vials of rain to kill the pain So far from home I thought you knew me You did it to me (Lonely, lonely) Lonely teardrops, I've been cryin' All week long Love is willing but the bed is cold Goodbye, Laurence I thought I knew you What good did that do (Lonely, lonely) CHORUS: I seem to see a rose I reach out then it goes Now in its thorns I roam You never know until you know Lord I ask you, Lord I beg you All I want to do is get back home Lonely teardrops (REPEAT)
