Its a long stretch of highway at midnight in New Mexico
Its a small colored light that shines from your car radio
Its the old motel owner who sleeps on a cot
And gives you the very last hit from her pot
Its a lonely feeling its what youve got
Its a lonely feeling like it or not
Its a crack in the sidewalk right next to a pay telephone
Its someones recorder when hoping that someone is home
Its an hour to kill to do what you please
But nobodys up for just shooting the breeze
Its a lonely feeling its like a disease
Its a lonely feeling you pray that it leaves
Its your best friend from high school who sees you and wishes you well
You try to break through but you run outta stories to tell
So you bid him goodbye and you step into space
Theres so many questions that you cannot face
Its a lonely feeling taking his place
Its a lonely feeling you just cant erase
Its three men from Chile who are tired and they wanna go home
Theyve run outta money and theyre stuck up in East Oregon
So you give them the small bit of change from your hand
You try to speak Spanish but they dont understand
Its a lonely feeling it gets to a man
Its a lonely feeling that runs through the land
Its a statue of Jesus that your grandmother had when she died
All cracked and all yellow and you know you should throw it aside
But youre growing religious the older you get
You havent been saved but it could happen yet
Its a lonely feeling full of regret
Its a lonely feeling wont let you forget
Its a bus stop, a street cop, an old dog, the new kid, a bum
Its fright and rejected, neglected the blind deaf and dumb
But you look in the mirror and youre still hanging in
Its there to remind you how lucky youve been
Its a lonely feeling now and again
Its a lonely feeling that comes from within.
