Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Husband don't know what he's done

Kids don't know what's wrong with mum

She can't say, they can't see

Putting it down to another bad day

Daddy don't know what he's done

Kids don't know what's wrong with mum

[Verse 2]

So this is how it feels to be lonely

This is how it feels to be small

This is how it feels when your word means nothing at all

[Verse 3]

Black car drives through the town

Some guy from the top estate

Left a note for a local girl

And yet he had it all on a plate

[Verse 4]

So this is how it feels to be lonely (Feels to be lonely)

This is how it feels to be small (Feels to be small)

This is how it feels when your word means nothing at all

[Verse 5]

Husband don't know what he's done

Kids don't know what's wrong with mum

She can't say, they can't see

Putting it down to another bad day

[Verse 6]

So this is how it feels to be lonely (Feels to be lonely)

This is how it feels to be small (Feels to be small)

This is how it feels when your word means nothing at all

[Verse 7]

So this is how it feels to be lonely (Feels to be lonely)

This is how it feels to be small (Feels to be small)

This is how it feels when your word means nothing at all

[Verse 8]

Nothing at all

Nothing at all
