Lyrics

0:26Spin the globe stop and start
0:36Come to a place that's torn apart
0:45Here's a secret it's my heart
0:52Oh well
0:55It's only
1:05Broken shutters whistling wind
1:13Vultures circling overhead
1:20Tumbleweeds fly
1:24Dust in my eyes
1:27Guess it's not my feelings crying
1:37Peeling paint on empty homes
1:44Where people lived in this town long ago
1:52Packed their bags nailed down the door
1:58To Lonelytown
2:09Oh I once had a love of my life
2:14The sun of my soul
2:22But I took him for granted
2:26Ignored all the signs
2:30And now it's just memories and passing ghosts
2:40Spiderwebs and weeds waist high
2:48Abandoned schoolyards and rusted wire
2:56Looking for love
3:00Looking for life
3:02In Lonelytown
3:46If you're lucky with a love of your own
3:54Remember this in a nutshell I've told:
4:01Hold them close and don't let go
4:08And cherish forevermore
4:17Or you will live in Lonelytown
Spin the globe  stop and start
Come to a place that's torn apart
Here's a secret  it's my heart
Oh well
It's only
Broken shutters  whistling wind
Vultures circling overhead
Tumbleweeds fly
Dust in my eyes
Guess it's not my feelings crying
Peeling paint on empty homes
Where people lived in this town long ago
Packed their bags  nailed down the door
To Lonelytown
Oh I once had a love of my life
The sun of my soul
But I took him for granted
Ignored all the signs
And now it's just memories and passing ghosts
Spiderwebs and weeds waist high
Abandoned schoolyards and rusted wire
Looking for love
Looking for life
In Lonelytown
If you're lucky with a love of your own
Remember this in a nutshell I've told:
Hold them close and don't let go
And cherish forevermore
Or you will live in Lonelytown
