[Verse 1]
There's been some lonely, lonely nights
Oh, baby, yes, since you've been gone
Lay my head on my pillow
Oh, how I cried all night long
[Verse 2]
The things you used to say to me
You said that we would never part
Well, you know I love you darlin'
Tell me, why did we have to part?
[Instrumental]
Days been dark since you been gone
Baby, just please come back and bring the light
If you had only compromised
And free me from these lonely nights
