Lyrics

So Danged Lonesome

(Kathy Kallick & Cary Black, Red Shirt Pub. Co./BMI) 
 
Like a wind that blows through a cracked window pane
And chills you down to the bone
With icy fingers that freeze all the rain
So danged lonesome
 
Like the echo through a canyon on a long winter’s night
Of a train whistle’s long mournful moan
Like the darkest hour before the first light
So danged lonesome
 
CHORUS
So lonesome it hurts all through the day    
And sleep brings no relief
            And the lonesome it burns
            And it tears and it yearns
            There’s no greater pain than grief
 
There’s no place to go that’s better than right here
There’s no road that leads me back home
A hole in my heart that’s filling up with tears
So danged lonesome
 
CHORUS
 
I’m just goin’ through the motions ‘cause I can’t even think
So dang lonesome
