LONESOME

(Words and music by Ed Bruce)

Did you ever say, "I'm lonesome,"

then stop and wonder really, what lonesome is?

Lonesome is a little boy

standing in a crowd

a telephone ringing

in an empty house

Lonesome is an autumn leaf

that first falls from its tree

Lonesome is me

Lonesome is a footstep

without a place to go

the summer's last robin

in winter's first snow

Lonesome is a little dog

lost out in the street

Lonesome is me

Lonesome is an empty bottle

a half-filled glass of wine

the sound the clock makes

when all you have is time

Lonesome is a heart that breaks

when love has turned to hate

the dying sun at the close of day

Lonesome is a jail of tears

that won't set me free

Lonesome is me

Lonesome is me

Lonesome is me

As a kid, I played this Glenn Yarbrough album until it was worn out. What a great song, and a great, great voice...

This song seems like the essence of what lonliness is all about.A classic from the 60's. Glen's voice in quite unique among all the singers.

This is one of Yarbrough's great songs, reflective and melancholy like so many of his songs are. And that marvelous, clear voice of his. His every note is true.

I get wrapped up in watching your Carpenters videos that I forget what other good "stuff" you have. I'm not a big fan of his but I really liked the lyrics and your video matched perfectly with them.
