Lyrics by Clare Steffen, and music, vocals, and production by William Sherry. A throwback to the songs of Hank Williams, and Roy Orbison, and the heartbreak of feeling lonely when a relationship ends.

Lyrics

Packin’ my bag
To move and find
A love like we had
When you were mine

It’s such a drag
It blows my mind
Hank’s word, you know the tag
I’m so lonesome, it just ain’t kind

Chorus
It’s the same old feeling
It comes to me at night
When I’d lie here beside you
Things used to feel so right

But since you're gone
And now it's just me only
I know what it's like to be lonely

--Instrument break---

With you, I would brag
I was so blind
And now I’m stuck in this old fleabag
The love we had just an old headline

Only the lonely, ain’t my bag
I was once your kind
I guess I’ll wave the white flag
A good womans’ hard to find

Chorus
It’s the same old feeling
It comes to me at night
When I’d lie here beside you
Things used to feel so right

But since you're gone
And now it's just me only
I know what it's like to be lonely

Fade
Only the lonely
I’m so lonesome I could cry
You know it don’t seem right
To be lonely
