Lonely Is A Two-Way Street

by Dana P. Rowe/John Dempsey

on The Fix (1997)

b>Tina:

Nobody calls you
Nobody cares
No one to kiss you
And lead you upstairs
Well maybe you're choosin'
To walk this dead-end beat
'Cause lonely is a two-way street

Were you too distant?
A little too shy?
Swimmin' in heartache
Watching chances go by?
Well, life's what you make it
So wake up, face the heat
Yeah, lonely is a two-way street

Tell her you want her
Pay any amount
Promise the moon
You can pay on account

Lie if you have to
Lying's okay
Hold her or have her
But don't let it lay...

'Cause baby you're blind to
The roses at your feet
Yeah, lonely is a two-way street

I tell ya', lonely is a two-way
Avenue or throughway
Lonely is a two-way street
