Scott Walker
A Woman Left Lonely
[Verse 1]
A woman left lonely
Will soon grow tired of waiting
And she'll do crazy things
On lonely occasions

[Verse 2]
A simple conversation
With a new man, now and then
Makes a touchy situation
When a good thing comes to an end

[Verse 3]
And when she gets lonely
She's thinking about her man
He's taken her for granted
'Cause he just don't understand

[Verse 4]
And the fevers of the night
They can burn an unloved woman
And like a red hot flame
Try to push all love aside
Oh yes, it does

[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 5]
A woman left lonely
Is a victim of a man
When he can't keep up his own way
She's gotta do the best she can

[Outro]
A woman left lonely
A woman left lonely
