Was it the right place or the wrong time
She came to me with her arms open wide
Said I looked like some boy she used to know
She had diamonds in her ears, diamonds 'round her neck
A glass of wine and a white cotton dress
What a woman like her could do to my soul
She's only lonely, I must be the only foolish kid in this town
I should know better, yeah I should forget her
'Cause Lord knows that she will bring me down
She's only lonely
verse 2
Maybe it's her voice, or her smile, and I would follow her for miles
Only to be left out in the cold
She's only lonely, I must be the only foolish kid in this town
I should know better, yeah I should forget her
'Cause Lord knows that she will bring me down
She's only lonely
Bridge
And I suppose that I should know lonely girls just come and go
Passin' their time with fools like me, fools like me
She's only lonely, I must be the only foolish kid in this town
I should know better, yeah I should forget her
'Cause Lord knows that she will bring me down
She's only lonely
