There's a hundred bluebirds up above the clouds
Putting all the color in the sky
And twice as many tear drops there to wash it down
Every one's another lullaby

But there's only one and only who could go and leave me lonely
There's a world of trouble trying to take its turn
I can hear it shaking underground
And half a dozen lessons I might never learn.
Not until them troubles come around .

But there's only one and only who could go and leave me lonely
There's a mile of blacktop where the road begins
It takes a time or two to recognize
Growing at the roadside, scattered by the wind
Are everybody's unsaid sad goodbyes.

But there's only one and only who could go and leave me lonely
You're the only one and only
Why'd you go and leave me lonely?...
