Mr. Lonely (LP版) - Venice
I'm a man they say who lives the ideal
A fancy home and a telephone in my automobile
Old friends they tell me I'm a lucky kind of man
Not a few would kill to do the things that I can
Got a reputation and your name on the door
Don't mean a thing to me there's something I want more
Mr Lonely try to understand
She's the only the wants and the needs of a driven man
Mr Lonely she's got me on my knees
She's the only money can't buy what money can't see
The streets are lined with men she's had for a while
She chews 'em up and spits 'em out service with a smile
And as I lay me down I toss in my bed
She runs too deep I just can't sleep she's stuck in my head
Why can't you be happy with the things that you've got
'Cause the only thing I want is the thing that I have not
Mr Lonely try to understand
She's the only the wants and the needs of a starving man
Mr Lonely they're dancing with my girl
She's the only I've got everything in this world
But I'd throw it all away just to have her for a day
No it's got to be eternally
An early grave is where she's driving you to
You'd think that I would stop but there's nothin' I can do
Mr Lonely never could understand
She's the only the wants and the needs of an honest man
Mr Lonely got me on my knees
She's the only my money can't buy what my money can't see
Mr Lonely am I too young Am I too old
She's the only am I too hot Am I too cold
Mr Lonely it's gone too long I can't go on
She's the only but I won't go 'cause she's all I know
Why can't you be happy with the things that you've got
