Lonely House (From Street Scene)

6 views

Lyrics

At night when everything is quiet
 The old house seems to breathe a sigh
 Sometimes I hear a neighbor snoring
 Sometimes I can hear a baby cry
 Sometimes I can hear a staircase creaking
 Sometimes a distant telephone
 Oh, and when the night settles down again
 This old house and I are all alone
 Lonely house, lonely me
 Funny with so many neighbors
 How lonely it can be
 Oh lonely street, lonely town
 Funny, you can be so lonely
 With all these folks around
 I guess there must be something
 I don't comprehend
 Sparrows have companions
 Even stray dogs have a friend
 The night for me is not romantic
 Unhook the stars and take them down
 I'm lonely in this lonely house, in this lonely town
