You promised me you'd come back
I promised to wait
But I was a little too lonely
And you were a little too late

Too many long nights alone
Not even a date
So I got a little too lonely
And you were a little too late

You never did write, you never did call
When I had the blues, you were havin' a ball
You thought that I'd be here to run to
Now I'm gonna do to you what I've been done to

Too bad about you, my friend
It could've been great
But I was a little too lonely
And now you're a little too late

You never did write, you never did call
When I had the blues, you were havin' a ball
You thought that I'd be here to run to
Now I'm gonna do to you what I've been done to.

Too bad about you, my friend,
It could've been great.
But I got a little too lonely,
And you were a little too late!
