LONELY TIME (Take It Away)
(Ian M. Bruce)

I sent for a lonely time. It arrived yesterday.
Received by return Express delivery.
It's not the kinda thing you take on trial.
You can't just send it back when it smears the smile.

CHORUS
I don't want this thing; I can't use it.
I don't want this thing; I can't lose it
I don't want this thing; I can't use it.
Please take it away. Take it away.
Take it away.

Here's the heartache.
I'm alone.
It's the very first one I tried on.
It seems to fit so well.
Just like a glove.
'Xactly fills the space I kept my love.

CHORUS

MIDDLE
Why did I ask for this?
Why oh why?
You must've come to close.
Automatic goodbye!?
Why did I ask for this?

I sent for a lonely time. It arrived yesterday.
Received by return Express delivery.
It's not the kinda thing you take on trial.
You can't just send it back when it smears the smile.
