Patty Loveless Lyrics
"Lonely Too Long"

(Bill Rice - Mary Sharon Rice Vaughn - Mike Lawler)

Well, good morning
Tell me how'd you sleep last night
You're still smiling
So we must have done something right
Don't feel guilty
Because you turned to me last night.

We ain't done nothing wrong
We've just been lonely too long
No we ain't done nothing wrong
We've just been lonely too long.

It's only natural
When you've been to long in the dark
To look for comfort
And to warm yourself by the fire
Were just afraid
We might get our fingers burnt.

But we ain't done nothing wrong
We've just been lonely too long
No we ain't done nothing wrong
We've just been lonely too long.

Nothing's wrong that can't be cured
Without your love
All you need is someone like me
To be sure of, to be your love.

--- Instrumental ---

I'll be waiting
Standing right outside your heart
And I'll be watching
For the slightest sign of a spark
And I'll be here
If you should want to turn to me.

'Cause we ain't done nothing wrong
We've just been lonely too long
No we ain't done nothing wrong
We've just been lonely too long.

We ain't done nothing wrong
We've just both been lonely too long
Just been lonely too long...
