You think it's gonna be a lonely night at home
Waitin' on the ringin' of the telephone
He said goodbye he hung up and left you hangin' on
But as sure as he's gone you won't be lonely long
So don't waste your time Thinkin' 'bout the things you'll miss
And don't sit alone cryin' while you reminisce
You say you'll never feel that way again Girl you couldn't be more wrong
Just as sure as he's gone you won't be lonely long
No longer than the time it takes me To drive across town
Run up on your porch and knock on your door
No longer than the time it takes you To make a tear drop
I'll be there before it hits the floor
He had his chance to love you all I want is mine
The tickin' of the clock is k**in' more than time
Cause ther'll be a hundred just like me there Before the break of dawn
Just as sure as he's gone you won't be lonely long
No longer than the time it takes me To drive across town
Run up on your porch and knock on your door
No longer than the time it takes you To make a tear drop
I'll be there before it hits the floor
So don't waste your time thinkin' 'bout The things you'll miss
And don't sit alone cryin' while you reminisce
You say you'll never feel that way again girl You couldn't be more wrong
