Lyrics The Mountain Goats

The Mountain Goats

Get Lonely

I will rise up early

And dress myself up nice

And I will leave the house

And check the deadlock twice

And I will find a crowd

And blend in for a minute

And I will try to find

A little comfort in it

And I will get lonely

And gasp for air

And send your name off from my lips

Like a signal flare

And I will go downtown

Stand in the shadows of the buildings

And button up my coat

Trying to stay strong, spirit willing

And I will come back home

Maybe call some friends

Maybe paint some pictures

It all depends

And I will get lonely

And gasp for air

And look up at the high windows

And see your face up there
