Lonely Town Lyrics


Spin the globe, stop and start
Come to a place that's torn apart
Here's a secret, it's my heart
Oh well, it's onlyBroken shutters, whistling wind
Vultures circling overhead
Tumbleweeds fly, dust in my eyes
Guess, it's not my feelings cryingPeeling paint on empty homes
Where people lived in this town long ago
Pack their bags, nail down the door
To Lonely TownOh, I once had a love of my life
The sun of my soul
But I took him for granted, ignored all the signs
And now it's just memories and passing ghostsSpider webs and weeds waist high
Abandoned schoolyards and rusted wire
Looking for love, looking for life
In Lonely TownIf you're lucky with a love of your own
Remember this in a nutshell and I've told
Hold them close and don't let go

And cherish forevermore
Or you will live in Lonely Town

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Paula Cole (born April 5, 1968 in Rockport, Massachusetts, USA) is an American singer and songwriter. Among her hits include "Where Have All the Cowboys Gone," "Me," "I Am So Ordinary," "I Believe In Love," and the theme to the WB's hit series "Dawson's Creek," "I Don't Want to Wait."

“An extraordinary songwriter with a gorgeous voice” – Rolling Stone
“… a feisty poet with a soaring voice and a funky groove.” – Entertainment Weekly
“Paula is an original voice both in what she is saying and how she is saying it.” – Peter Gabriel.

Grammy winner and 7 time Grammy nominee Paula Cole has released six solo albums spanning an eighteen year career. She has sold approximately three million albums and has performed with icons in many genres of music from Peter Gabriel to Dolly Parton (and many more.) Cole’s emotionally deep and thrilling performances are a trademark. Poetic and fiercely touching, intelligent writing makes Cole stand apart. Her compositions have been covered by Herbie Hancock, Annie Lennox, Katherine McPhee to name a few. From a small town in Massachusetts Paula Cole was raised in a musical family with whom she and her daughter remain close. Cole is a scholarship alumna from Berklee College of Music with a background in jazz, received her first record deal with a jazz label (which she declined), and has collaborated with many jazz artists. Paula teaches and gives clinics in a spirit of giving back to the circle of music. With a loving allegiance to her fans, she maintains loyal communication online and after her live shows. As the first woman in history to solely produce and receive the best Producer Grammy nomination for her work, “This Fire”, Cole has broken boundaries with a searcher’s spirit. From her top ten hits of the 1990’s to her more recent critically acclaimed albums, Paula Cole continues to write, produce, record and perform heartfelt, meaningful, lasting music that defies categorization.
