Loneliest Man in the World

I smile thinking of you even though I know that you’re sleeping with somebody else

But knowing he makes you happier than I could is better than being happy myself

I stare at your picture that’s taped to the ceiling of this truck bed that I now call a home

And I look at the no one laying beside me and darlin’ I feel so alone

I hope that he makes you feel like the happiest girl

All the lights are on Broadway but it’s still such a dark, lonely world

I don’t remember ever being this lonely and you’re only a few states away

You’re probably laughing at some stupid joke he said while he’s brushing the hair from your face

So I sit in this bar and I strum this guitar singing songs about thinking about you

But the lights on the stage shine like lights on a grave

I’ve been dead, darling, living without you

The lights of the city don’t shine like the bright lights of your eyes

No place that I go, no time on my own sets me free

The sounds of the streets rings like sweet memories of your laughter playing in my mind

While I’m thinking of you wondering if you’re thinking of me

I hope he makes you feel like the happiest girl

All the lights are on Broadway but still it’s a dark, lonely world
