Iris DeMent

Let's Invite Them Over

I know why you're lonely and I know why you're blue

You're lonesome to see him and I long to see her too

We're not in love with each other, we're in love with our best friends

So let's invite them over again

We've talked it over and over and we know it's not right

We should stay away forever but we're lonesome each night

Yes we stay away for a while but we know in the end

We'll invite them over again

We've talked it over and over and we know it's not right

We should stay away forever but we're lonesome each night

Yes we stay away for a while but we know in the end

We'll invite them over again

Let's invite them over again
