The Lonesome Sound

It's hard to stand by your man

When he can hardly stand on his own

Walking is useless, holding is hopeless'

When his bottle is rolling on the floor

Well time keeps turning

A life without learning

Will give you lessons

That's so hard to take

But this thing's as real

As the blood on my hands

Pretending love can keep me straight

-----

CHORUS

One things for sure

I won't endure

The Lonesome Sound

When you said goodbye

The longer I wait

The more my heart aches

I wish you didn't have to say goodbye

-----

Spend my nights, pouring my heart out

Hoping our love could endure

You've got flights, and I've got my fancies

Sometimes you can't take anymore

And time can be cruel

I ain't no fool

At some point the levy will break

Hearts become broken

Harsh words are spoken

Lovers caught in the wake

CHORUS
