You can laugh at the pictures you have in your book
Go on take a look and smile
It just takes a while to get used to
We used to have none of that
We just had each other to look at

One day loneliness will creep again
And this time I'll have to befriend it
Before I can send it to you
Maybe you'll take it on, maybe you won't
But I don't want it anymore than you do

I feel ill when I sing this song I sing
We still have one thing of worth
And I know it's her I'm not used to
We used to not want any of this
We just wanted each other to kid around with

I know loneliness runs deep my friend
No one ever embraces what nobody else recommends
Go on face it or else pretend
Are broken hearts better off in the end?
