So Lonely

Hey, woman, I know what your eyes are telling

I know what you’ve got on your mind

Hey, lover, I don’t know who you think you’re fooling

Love’s bloody labour’s lost and you denied

Pull on me, I pray put your mind right to it

Don’t leave me so dissatisfied

Push on me, make haste now don’t keep me waiting

Love’s guilty patience be not glorified

So lonely I could not even cry

So lonely I could not even cry

Sometimes at dawn

When dew stains the lawn

And mice seek to hide

With the crumbs from the table

And the cracks in the fire

I go on and wager

My love against your life

So lonely I could not even cry

So lonely I could not even cry
