It's a late night kind of lonesome Comes from a long-time kind of lovin' The kind I left behind when I left you It's a fear of gettin' older, gettin' harder, gettin' colder And it's knowin' that you can't go back No matter what you do And long-time lovin's hard to find They say you're lucky if it happens once in a lifetime And it's hard to break the tie that binds I'm on a one-way road away from you But I'm with you in my mind It's a late night kind of lonesome Comes from a long-time kind of lovin' The kind I left behind when I left you It's a funny kind of lonely when you know that you're the only one Who'll be there doin' things your darlin' used to do They say you're lucky if it happens once in a lifetime And it's hard to break the tie that binds I'm on a one-way road away from you But I'm with you in my mind 'Cause long-time lovin's hard to find
