[Verse] Learned the way to treat her right But the lonely nights stay long Afraid my heart won't see the light Before I die they'll sing this song [Verse 2] Whispered promises in dreams Yet my bed remains so cold Afraid love ain't as it seems Afraid my story's getting old [Chorus] Oh I'm singin' the lonely blues Afraid to lose what I ain't found Learned the dance but not the moves Hope true love comes around [Verse 3] I've got the roses in my hand But no one to give them to Afraid I won't get to stand And show my woman truth [Bridge] In the shadows where I hide Dreams of her hold on tight Hoping love finds me tonight Before I fade into the night [Chorus] Oh I'm singin' the lonely blues Afraid to lose what I ain't found Learned the dance but not the moves Hope true love comes around
