Thereâ??s a place I know too well
Iâ??ve been there and left too tell
I can see that you and me are almost halfway there

Weâ??re gettinâ?? much too close
Feels like Iâ??ve seen a ghost
Took a vow if I made it out youâ??d never catch me there again

No time to wonder why
No time for long goodbyes
Last chance for gettinâ?? out
Is fading with the light
â??Cause I donâ??t want to be around
When the night comes down
On the lonesome side of town

You can hear each footstep fall
Run from shadows on the wall
Everyday is just the same as one that came before

You wonâ??t find any peace
Not here, not on these streets
Misery loves company and thereâ??s enough to go around

No time to wonder why
No time for long goodbyes
Last chance for gettinâ?? out
Is fading with the light
â??Cause I donâ??t want to be around
When the night comes down
On the lonesome side of town
On the lonesome side of town
