Lonely
By Ilya Chervony · American Chanson
Read lyrics
The evening shadows fall again,
A quiet room, an empty chair.
The clock keeps ticking through the night,
But no one’s waiting there.
I walk the streets we used to know,
The lights are soft and low.
Every window shines for someone else,
But mine has lost its glow.
Lonely, lonely every night,
Lonely in the pale moonlight.
Ever since you’ve said goodbye,
Lonely is my lullaby.
The jukebox plays our favorite song,
A melody so sweet.
But every note reminds my heart
Of love we can’t repeat.
I try to smile and play the part,
Pretend I’m passing through.
But every dream I dream at night
Still ends with you.
Lonely, lonely every night,
Lonely in the pale moonlight.
Ever since you’ve said goodbye,
Lonely is my lullaby.
If I could turn the hands of time,
I’d never let you go.
But lonely hearts can only live
With memories they know.
Lonely, lonely every night,
Lonely in the pale moonlight.
Ever since you’ve said goodbye,
Lonely is my lullaby.
