All of a sudden you're lonely all of a sudden it's goodbye
   You found out too late how much you love her all of a sudden you cry
  
   You thought that she'd belong to you forever
   You thought that she love you that you could play
   It's true that love and hurt may go together
   But too much hurt and our love's gone away
   All of a sudden you're lonely...
   [ steel ]
   When you're lonely things look different somehow
   You see mistakes you never knew you made
   You didn't know it ended you sure know now
   Each minute that she's gone you're gettin' paid
   All of a sudden you're lonely...
