Shall we go out dancing with the loon My best friend in the whole wide room The night is never long enough The morning whisper's all is not lost I hear you singing in the wire And I fall open as a flower You're the hope you're what is left When all has emptied and has fled I ask my pa Say what'll I be And I ask the question Like I know the answer already I'm falling falling I can see I don't know what is good for me But lonely lonely lonely Likes my company Will you be nostalgia in the autumn Will you be the hell I've known of heaven Will you be the smile under my nose Will you be the naked I can't clothe Will you be the welsh choir on the wind All roarin' and swearin' at the ocean Will you be the ash of a well-tended fire Will you be the ambush Of my desire I ask my ma What'll I do She said shut your mouth If someone desire's you And I'm falling falling I can see I don't know what is good for me But lonely lonely lonely likes my company And who'd dare to love me I'm a whore I'm too exposed honey I'm rubbed raw And all that makes it better is your touch Lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely Lonely lonely lonely loves my company Lonely lonely lonely loves my touch
