Lonely Talk Lyrics

From a promise to a lie, from lies to regret
Turn your back on truth, baby
And that's always what you get
'Cause a man could drown in a love so deep, babyI'm not begging you to stay
It's just lonely talk
You don't hear a word I say
You just turn and walk, babyWhen I'm on my knees and praying
To the Lord above
When He listens to my prayer
He knows that it's just lonely talkOoh well, I call your name and I cry all night
Well, it's of no concern to you, baby
Now that I'm out of your sightFrom a rainbow's end to my dying day
I'm gonna keep on living this life, baby
Till I get it right[Incomprehensible] you look so sweet, baby
I'm not begging you to stay
It's just lonely talk
You don't hear a word I say
You just turn and walk, babyWhen I'm on my knees and praying

To my Lord above
When He listens to my prayer
Knows it's only lonely talkWhen I'm on my knees and praying
To the Lord above
When He listens to my prayer
Knows it's only lonely talkHe knows what's best for me
That it's only lonely talk
Ooh baby, lonely talk
Oh, lonely talk, baby, lonely talk
Oh baby, lonely talk
