Lonely Man - The Impressions

Mother I cry, with tears in my eyes

I’m such a lonely man

The woman I love, she don’t realise

That I’m such a lonely man

Though she speaks to me

When our eyes meet passing by

Really she doesn’t know I exist

So I’m in love yet such a lonely man

Speak to her, as you go on your way

That’s what my Mama whispered dear

Smile at her now, then make your eyes say

That you were really sincere

A great pretender is a woman my son

So don’t be misled from what she do

But if she speaks to you

And if she smiles at you

Though none she’ll like my son

She may be so lone, lonely too
