Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Now my room has got two windows
But the sunshine never comes through
You know it's always dark and dreary
Since I broke off, baby, with you
[Verse 2]
I live on Lonely Avenue
My little girl wouldn't say I do
So I'll try, I'll try, I'll try
Yes, I'll cry, I'll cry, I'll cry
Someone hear me, Lord
[Verse 3]
Now my covers they feel like lead
And my pillow, it feels like stone
Well, I've tossed and turned so every night
I'm not used to being alone
[Verse 4]
I live on Lonely Avenue
My little girl wouldn't say I do
And I'll cry, I'll cry, I'll cry
Yes, I'll try, I'll try, I'll try
[Verse 5]
Someone hear me, Lord
Someone hear
Someone hear me, Lord
Someone hear
[Verse 6]
Stand in love, don't fall in love
[Verse 7]
Now my room has got two windows
But the sunshine never comes through
You know it's always dark and dreary
Since I broke off, baby, with you
[Verse 8]
I live on Lonely Avenue
My little girl wouldn't say I do
So I'll cry, I'll cry, I'll cry
Yes, I'll try, I'll try, I'll try
Someone hear me, Lord
[Verse 9]
I said, I'll try, I'll try, I'll try
And I'll cry, I'll cry, I'll cry
Someone hear me, Lord
Someone hear
[Verse 10]
If someone gone ill
As I would say it again
Stand in love, don't fall in love
