LONELY AVENUE


It was cool when we lived to play
But she thought she could change my bad ways
Paint the town almost every night                                        
Getting drunk, searching for a good time   

It’s a pity, I couldn’t see
Such a good thing right in front of me
Packed her suitcase, gone for good
Always said she would

Now I’ve found my way down lonely avenue
And I can’t escape this downbeat attitude
For lonely avenue is where you will find the blues

Now I watch as the world goes by
No one phones, it’s a cruel and lonely life
Sitting here with the TV on
Thinking where did the great plan go so wrong                         

Are you happy, are you sad                                                 
Is the new life everything you planned
Grass is greener on the other side
I know that’s a lie

Now I’ve found my way down lonely avenue
And I can’t escape this downbeat attitude
For lonely avenue is where I will live the blues

It’s a pity, I couldn’t see
Such a good thing right in front of me
She packed her suitcase, gone for good
Always knew she would

Now I’ve found my way down lonely avenue
And I can’t escape this downbeat attitude
I will live my days on lonely avenue
And I will never escape this downbeat attitude
For lonely avenue is where you will find the blues
