You used to think that love was worth the time When love was all we had We didn't need distractions all the time Or being made to laugh And then you said we had to build a home And love alone could not provide You said that money would never get us down You didn't know you lied Now loneliness is there despite the love we make And loneliness knows where to find the friends we make And the place we live is just a new street number On an old address called Love and Loneliness
I sometimes wonder how you see us now I'd read your mind if I had the chance I don't know if I'd ever find our love in there Or just old photographs Now loneliness is there despite the love we make And loneliness knows where to find the love we make And your friends call 'round and they act amazed You show them 'round and they stand and praise The life we live that's just a new street number On an old address called Love and Loneliness
