I hear them play my records on the radio They write my name up in lights My picture in the paper smiling back at me But I'm lonely in person tonight I'm lonely in person tonight Town after town people come out to see The man who sings the songs of love and life I laugh and sing and they think I could never be This lonely in person tonight I'm lonely in person tonight The jukebox changes colors as the guitar starts to ring Happy people laugh and dance to the songs I sing But wax and needles cannot make a wrong love turn out right I'm lonely in person tonight I'm lonely in person tonight The jukebox changes colors as the guitar starts to ring Happy people laugh and dance to the songs I sing But wax and needles cannot make a wrong love turn out right And I'm lonely in person tonight Yes I'm lonely in person tonight
