First Day Of Loneliness

(album: Occasional Wife - 1970)

Oh, what a time I must'a had last night
Looks of things I did all right
Or something sure left things here in a mess
If it was me I had myself a ball
But I don't recall a single thing at all
Except I gotta face my first day of loneliness

My first day of loneliness and I don't know what to do
I made it through last night somehow and I woke up a wanting you
Oh, the first few days I seemed all right
But it all caught up with me last night
And I gotta face my first day of loneliness

Oh, when you left I thought I'd paint the town
Live it up n show the girls around
But there's not a one who could bring me happiness
Oh, I didn't know I was a missing you
Until last night I had a drink or two
Now I gotta face my first day of loneliness
Yeah, I gotta face my first day of loneliness
