I sat and watched two lovers say hello They kissed and walked away from lonely me They didn't want to share The love that's being there With poor lonely Mister Misery I walked along the beach alone and blue I turned to gaze across the empty sea As memories drifted by I had to stop and cry For poor lonely Mister Misery The story of my life is not worth reading For lonely is the only word you see Three's a crowd when lovers get together
But I'm alone so one's a crowd for me I guess I'll move along where no one knows The name that everyone's been calling me The name I'll try to lose Together with the blues Of poor lonely Mister Misery The name I'll try to lose Together with the blues Of poor lonely Mister Misery I'm poor lonely Mister Misery Call me poor lonely Mister Misery Just poor lonely Mister Misery
