Why do I wait for your call every night

Sittin' next to a phone that never rings

I wait because I'm lonely

And lonely people do foolish things

Why do I keep your picture and sight

When I know all the heartache it brings

I do because I'm lonely

And lonely people do foolish things

I find myself pouring wine for two

Pretending you're still there

I carry on a conversation with you

Pour out my heart to an empty chair

Why why do I go on fooling myself

When I know what tomorrow will bring

One more day of being lonely

And lonely people

Do foolish things

Why do I go on fooling myself

When I know what tomorrow will bring

One more day of being lonely

And lonely people

Do foolish things
