Well my friend you ask me what to do

If I were you, and feeling blue

I know inside that you still care

You want her here, but she's out there



Don't leave her lonely too long

'Cause she'll be gone, gone, gone

Don't leave her lonely too long

'Cause she'll be gone, gone, gone



You still have time to change her mind

She needs to know, the way you feel

And there could be no better time

You've got to show her your love is real



Don't leave her lonely too long

'Cause she'll be gone, gone, gone

Don't leave her lonely too long

'Cause she'll be gone, gone, gone



There's strangers waiting in line

To take your place and leave you behind

And then too late you'll change your mind

Your heart will break a million times



Don't leave her lonely too long

'Cause she'll be gone, gone, gone

Don't leave her lonely too long

'Cause she'll be gone, gone, gone

She'll be gone, gone, gone
