Now what do you do when youre lonesome?
Where do you go when youre blue?
And how do you deal with such emotion?
When youre just an ordinary fool?
Do you hang your head and walk the streets hoping no one sees your face?
Wishing you were someone else someplace far away?
Do you stay out late nights drinking trying to smile through?
A pain that everyone knows is tearing you in two
Now what do you do when youre lonesome?
Where do you go when youre blue?
And how do you deal with such emotion?
When youre just an ordinary fool?
Now some have tried changes of geography and such.
Others have locked their hearts away for fear that theyll fall in love.
Oh, but still theres still some far too dumb to know theres something wrong
And they waste their lives wondering why theyre waking up alone.
Now what do you do when youre lonesome?
Where do you go when youre blue?
And how do you deal with such emotion?
When youre just an ordinary fool?
Now what do you do when youre lonesome?
Where do you go when youre blue?
And how do you deal with such emotion?
When youre just an ordinary fool?
