The Lonesome Side Of Town - Kim Richey

There’s a place I know too well

I’ve been there and left too tell

I can see that you and me are almost halfway there

We’re gettin' much too close

Feels like I’ve seen a ghost

Took a vow if I made it out you’d never catch me there again

No time to wonder why

No time for long goodbyes

Last chance for gettin' out

Is fading with the light

'Cause I don’t want to be around

When the night comes down

On the lonesome side of town

You can hear each footstep fall

Run from shadows on the wall

Everyday is just the same as one that came before

You won’t find any peace

Not here, not on these streets

Misery loves company and there’s enough to go around

No time to wonder why

No time for long goodbyes

Last chance for gettin' out

Is fading with the light

'Cause I don’t want to be around

When the night comes down

On the lonesome side of town

On the lonesome side of town
