Lonely Talk

From a promise to a lie, from lies to regret Turn your back on truth, baby And that's always what you get 'Cause a man could drown in a love so deep, baby I'm not begging you to stay It's just lonely talk You don't hear a word I say You just turn and walk, baby When I'm on my knees and praying To the Lord above When He listens to my prayer He knows that it's just lonely talk Ooh well, I call your name and I cry all night Well, it's of no concern to you, baby Now that I'm out of your sight From a rainbow's end to my dying day I'm gonna keep on living this life, baby Till I get it right [Incomprehensible] you look so sweet, baby I'm not begging you to stay It's just lonely talk You don't hear a word I say You just turn and walk, baby When I'm on my knees and praying To my Lord above When He listens to my prayer Knows it's only lonely talk When I'm on my knees and praying To the Lord above When He listens to my prayer Knows it's only lonely talk He knows what's best for me That it's only lonely talk Ooh baby, lonely talk Oh, lonely talk, baby, lonely talk Oh baby, lonely talk --- Lonely Talk - Michael McDonald
