Lonely Joe - Tom Jones

Lonely Joe

Sad and lonely, though

No one else will know

I’m Lonely Joe

Down there a town I know

Goes rolling by

They can’t see me up here

It’s much too high

I’m high upon a hill

That overlooks the town and you

And you, I can cry

Oh yeah, I can cry

And she will never know I’m a sad and lonely Joe

Somewhere a girl I know

Has someone new

She said goodbye to me

What could I do?

I said, «I wish you well»

Pretending it was easy too

But now I can cry

Oh yeah, I can cry

And she will never know I’m a sad and lonely Joe

Lonely Joe

Sad and lonely though

No one else will know

I’m Lonely Joe

Up here among the clouds

I dream my dream

How small and silent now

The town does seem

Until once more I’ll go

Back down to face the town and you

But then I won’t cry

Oh no, I’d rather die

Then let somebody know that I’m a sad and lonely Joe

Lonely Joe

Sad and lonely though

No one else will know

I’m Lonely Joe

Lonely Joe

Sad and lonely though

No one else will know

I’m Lonely Joe

I’m Lonely Joe
