Another Lonely Man
Composer(s): Neil Innes

I don't want to fall in love again
I know my heart could never stand the pain
Meanwhile I'll try to get by if I can
From now on I'll be another lonely man

I'd like to thank you
For the way you held my hand
That moonlit night
Down by the old Rio Grande
Now even Paris in the spring
Does not mean a thing
But the streetlights seem to understand

That I don't want to fall in love again
I know my heart could never stand the pain
Meanwhile I'll try to get by if I can
From now on I'll be another lonely man

When I come home at night
A little worse for drink
I see my empty room
and razor by the sink
But it's no use to me
It runs on batteries
And I got to get some new ones
I think

Oh I don't want to fall in love again
I know my heart could never stand the pain
Meanwhile I'll try to get by if I can
From now on I'll be another lonely man

I still remember the things we used to do
Mixing cocktails and sharing our shampoo
And that night you lost your key
You blamed it all on me
Because we were both dressed up as
kangaroos
Oh I don't want to fall in love again
I know my heart could never stand the pain
Meanwhile I'll try to get by if I can
From now on I'll be another lonely man
From now on I'll be another lonely man
