I'm lonely and I love it
Woe is me, but I'm above it
It's the strangest thing
I'm sad and I don't care
And I'm dancing on air
I miss you and I like it
Show me a mountain and I'll hike it
It's a whole new feeling never felt before
Get me to the dance floor
I'm as lonely as an eagle
And I'm crazy as a loon
Who would ever think I could
Get over you so soon?
I should be singing the blues
But I just want to croon
Winter is still with us
But I'm dancing like it's June
Because I'm lonely and I love it
It's been rough, but I'll rough it
If that's how it feels to get your heart broken
Break my heart again
I'm as lonely as Narcissus
Gazing in his mirrored pond
Wearing all the clothes you hate
And going back to blond
Staying up all hours
In my seedy demimonde
If you have something to tell me
Please don't correspond
Because I'm lonely
I'm lonely and I love it
If only I'd dreamed of it
I'd have broken up with you so long ago
You wouldn't even know
I'm as lonely as an emperor
Upon a golden throne
Going off my diet
With a double chocolate cone
Shouting from the rooftops
And through every telephone
All the time I've been with you
I wish I'd been alone
Because I'm lonely as Mount Everest
And probably as high
It's time to buy all the records
You would never let me buy
It's time to try the million things
You never let me try
I can almost laugh
At all the times you made me cry
Because I'm lonely and I love it
