Dottie West - Lonely Is Lyrics

(Jerry Foster - Bill Rice)

Lonely is a rainy day
When home is something far away
And someone special's on your mind
You'd sure love to see.

Lonely is a call to home
When no one's there to catch the phone
And nighttime seems to have no dawn
And you don't have a friend.

Lonely is a feeling
That strips your conscience bare
A state of mind you can't explain
But still you know it's there.

Lonely is a city street
That's lost the sound of shuffling feet
And empty thing that touches you
and makes you wanna cry.

Lonely is a house for two
When no one's living there but you
Happiness turned inside out
That's what lonely is.

Happiness turned inside out
That's what lonely is...
