If the windows need washin' if the grass needs mowin'

If the paint on the shutters is gone

If the kitchen seems so leakin' if the backdoor's a squeakin'

You've left her lonely too long

You've left her lonely too long too long too many nights you left her all alone

So if you started hurtin' then there's one thing for certain

You've left her lonely too long

[ steel ]

If there's no curtains on the windows no clothes in the closet

If the clock on the mantel run down

If the floor you've started walkin' and if the neighbors have started talkin'

You've left her lonely too long

You've left her lonely...

You've left her lonely too long
