(Kenny Beard, Frank Rogers, Casey Beathard)
One coffee cup, one toothbrush, one set of keys, one car out in the drive
One half of the closet empty, one half of the bed cold at night
One of us just up and disappeared
And that only leaves one of us round here
Lonesome
Can drive a man insane
Lonesome
It抯 the sad part of the game
Win some, lose some
Lonesome
One man and one woman, one too many cold and bitter fights
One high powered lawyer later one piece of paper they want me to sign
The hand she used to hold picks up the pen
And all at once reality sets in
Lonesome
Can drive a man insane
Lonesome
It抯 the sad part of the game
Win some, lose some
Lonesome
Lonesome
Lonesome
Lonesome(Rod Stewart / Carmine Appice, Kevin Savigar, Duane Hitchings)
Billy left his home with a dollar in his pocket and a head full of dreams.
He said somehow, some way, it's gotta get better than this.
Patti packed her bags, left a note for her momma, she was just seventeen,
there were tears in her eyes when she kissed her little sister goodbye.
They held each other tight as they drove on through the night they were so exited.
We got just one shot of life, let's take it while we're still not afraid.
Because life is so brief and time is a thief when you're undecided.
And like a fistful of sand, it can slip right through your hands.
Young hearts be free tonight. Time is on your side,
Don't let them put you down, don't let 'em push you around,
don't let 'em ever change your point of view.
Paradise was closed so they headed for the coast in a blissful manner.
They took a tworoom apartment that was jumping ev'ry night of the week.
Happiness was found in each other's arms as expected, yeah
Billy pierced his ears, drove a pickup like a lunatic, ooh!
Young hearts be free tonight.Time is on your side,
Don't let them put you down, don't let 'em push you around,
don't let 'em ever change your point of view.
[instrumental verse]
Young hearts be free tonight.Time is on your side.
Billy wrote a letter back home to Patti's parents tryin' to explain.
He said we're both real sorry that it had to turn out this way.
But there ain't no point in talking when there's nobody list'ning so we just ran away
Patti gave birth to a ten pound baby boy, yeah!
Young hearts be free tonight, time is on your side.
Young hearts be free tonight, time is on your side.
Young hearts be free tonight, time in on your side.
Young hearts gotta run free, be free, live free
Time is on, time is on your side
Time, time, time, time is on your side
is on your side
is on your side
