A woman left lonely
will soon grow tired of waiting
she'll do crazy things
on lonely occasions

A simple conversation
with a new man now and again
makes a touchy situation
when a good thing's comin' to an end

And when she gets lonely
she's thinkin' 'bout her man
she knows he's takin' her for granted
honey, she doesn't understand

Well, the fevers of the night, 
they burn an unloved woman 
yeah, those red-hot flames 
try to push old love aside

A woman left lonely 
is just a victim of her man, yes she is
when he can't give up his whole world, no
she's got to do the best that she can

A woman left lonely
that lonely girl
oh..
