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?
