[Verse 1: Buck Dharma & Wendy Webb]
Lonely teardrops, you've been crying, I hear them fall
In the night the empty night, I hear your song
It goes right through me, it used to move me
Lonely, lonely
Lonely Paris, met a dancer, we did the stroll
Through the night the empty night, four years ago
I thought you know me, she gave it to me
Lonely, lonely
[Chorus: Buck Dharma]
I seem to see a rose, I reach out then it goes
Now in its thorns, I roam, the sky is grey and I am cold
Lord, I tell you, Lord, I tell you
All I want to do is get back home
[Verse 2: Buck Dharma & Wendy Webb]
Lonely teardrops, we did shoot them, they came on strong
Vials of rain to kill the pain, so far from home
I thought you knew me, you did it to me
Lonely, lonely
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3: Buck Dharma & Wendy Webb]
Lonely teardrops, I've been cryin', all week long
Love is willing, but the bed is cold, goodbye, Laurence
I thought I knew you, what good did that do
Lonely, lonely
[Chorus: Buck Dharma]
I seem to see a rose, I reach out then it goes
Now in its thorns, I roam, you never know until you know
Lord, I ask you, Lord, I beg you
All I want to do is get back home
[Outro: Wendy Webb]
