Loneliest Girl in the World

She was the loneliest girl

In the world

And of that she was sure

No one had ever been

So Unaffectionate

Ever before

Holy irreverent

Wholly irrelevant

That’s only a knock at the door

Cause she was the loneliest girl in the world

The loneliest girl

The loneliest girl

The loneliest girl

In the world

She would go walkin' at night

By the light

Of a silvery moon

She would a’whistle a line

Keeping time

With the click of her boots

Heard it myself

At a quarter to twelve

Oh what a sad little tune

She must be the loneliest girl in the world

The loneliest girl

The loneliest girl

The loneliest girl

In the world

Now every night, honey

I keep the window

A little ajar

In case she comes by again

Whistling high

And then I, from afar

Shout: “Woman I hear your song,

Know where you’re coming from

Please let me know who you are…”

You must be the loneliest girl

in the world

The loneliest girl

The loneliest girl

The loneliest girl

In the world
