G. Gano/The Heads



And Charlie Chance

Mocks castles in the air

And - bang - romance

It rocks his cradles of despair



Only the lonely

Homely sentiment

Only the lonely

Only my detriment



I not gonna see you anymore

And I am cryin'

I don't want to see you anymore

But I might be lyin'



Miss Hard he hunts

Her sikhs will not suffice

Bad Batter bunts

Willy Meek speaks of self-sacrifice.

His muse sick, it pays

How much now cost is the balance

The musician prays

'Cause his touch now is lost as his talents



I'm not gonna see you anymore

And I am cryin'

I don't wanna see you anymore

But I might be lyin'



No, I know. Oh! Now, I won't let go

Oh, I know. I won't let you go



And Charlie Chance

Makes castles in the air

And - bang - romance

It breaks his cradles of despair



Only the lonely

Blowing leaves in the gusts

Only the lonely

Loathing leaves disgust



I don't wanna see you anymore

And I am cryin'

I don't wanna see you anymore

But I might be lyin'
