That's What It's Like To Be Lonesome Lyrics

(Bill Anderson)

The streets're dark and empty
And you walk them all alone
You think about your love affair
And wonder what went wrong.

You go to bed each night and pray
You'll never see the dawn
Afraid of each tomorrow
With it's heartless cold unknown.

And that's what it's like to be lonesome
With a heart a broken love taught to cry
And that's what it's like to be lonesome
I know 'cause I'm a mighty lonesome guy.

You search to find a tavern
Where the music is playing loud
You try to lose your heartaches
In the laughter of the crowd.

But the happy couples make you think
Of things that might have been
And you have to fight the teardrops
Till you're by yourself again.

And that's what it's like to be lonesome
With a heart a broken love taught to cry
And that's what it's like to be lonesome
I know 'cause I'm a mighty lonesome guy...
