Perfectly Lonely Lyrics

Had a little love, but I spread it thin Falling in her arms and out again Made a bad name for my game 'round town Tore out my heart, shut it down
Nothing to do, nowhere to be A simple little kind of free Nothing to do, no one but me And that's all I need
I'm perfectly lonely I'm perfectly lonely I'm perfectly lonely, yeah 'Cause I don't belong to anyone, nobody belongs to me
I see my friends around from time to time When their ladies let 'em slip away And when they ask me how I'm doin' with mine This is always what I say
Nothing to do, nowhere to be A simple little kind of free Nothing to do, no one to be Is it really hard to see why
I'm perfectly lonely I'm perfectly lonely I'm perfectly lonely, yeah 'Cause I don't belong to anyone, nobody belongs to me
And this is not to say there never comes a day I'll take my chances and start again And when I look behind on all my younger times I'll have to thank the wrongs that led me to a love so strong
I'm perfectly lonely I'm perfectly lonely I'm perfectly lonely, yeah 'Cause I don't belong to anyone, and nobody belongs to me
That's the way, that's the way, that's the way that I want it That's the way, that's the way, that's the way that I want it That's the way, that's the way, that's the way that I want it That's the way, that's the way, that's the way that I want it
