Tennis shoe strung 'cross the telephone wire
The sun creeps up on my empire
Tin foil castle, bubble gum crown
Me and my minions make the roundsI'm lonely without you
Just like one left shoe
I'm lonely without youUnder the spotlight, a neon kiss
Carnival barkers preen and twist
Three for quarter, one for a dime
This broken heart general store is open all the timeI'm lonely without you
Just like one left shoe
I'm lonely without youI'm a little cocoon, just bloomin' for you
I take a deep breath, the day is new
I'm brave, I'm a hero, the world's bright and clear
But my insides shrivel when you're not hereNewspapers piled on my front porch
The sun's winding up, it's starting to scorch
The air is dust, my lungs are hot
I keep making love to what is notI'm lonely without you
Just like one left shoe
I'm lonely without you
