Had a little love, but I spread it thin
|
Falling in her arms and out again
|
Made a bad name for my game around town
|
Tore up my heart, and shut it down
|
|
Nothing to do
|
Nowhere to be
|
A simple little kind of free
|
Nothing to do
|
No one but me
|
And that's all I need
|
|
I'm perfectly lonely
|
I'm perfectly lonely
|
I'm perfectly lonely (Yeah)
|
'Cause I don't belong to anyone
|
Nobody belongs to me
|
|
I see friends around from time to time
|
When their ladies let them slip away
|
And when they ask me how I'm doing with mine
|
This is always what I say
|
|
Nothing to do
|
Nowhere to be
|
A simple little kind of free
|
Nothing to do
|
No one to be
|
Is it really hard to see
|
|
Why I'm perfectly lonely
|
I'm perfectly lonely
|
I'm perfectly lonely
|
I'm perfectly lonely (Yeah)
|
'Cause I don't belong to anyone
|
Nobody belongs to me
|
|
And this is not to say
|
There never comes a day
|
I'll take my chances and start again
|
And when I look behind
|
On all my younger times
|
I have to thank the wrongs that led me to a love so strong
|
|
I'm perfectly lonely
|
I'm perfectly lonely
|
I'm perfectly lonely (Yeah)
|
'Cause I don't belong to anyone
|
Nobody belongs to me
|
|
(It's the way, it's the way, it's the way that I want it)
