Isn't It Lonely Together

(album: Even Stevens - 1968)

Every day, it's easier to see
That you're gonna be a mother
So here we are, honeymoon
Hotel room, married to each other

And the smile upon your trembling lips is brave
But it don't cover up those tears you've cried
And though I'm trying hard
All the emptiness I feel is just too big to hide

And we've got nothing in common but our name and our shame
And the blame for letting passion's foolish flame burn wild
And now we've got to cover up the fact with an act
To atone for our mistake and to protect the child

And we've agreed to try
To try and live a lie
But baby, I think it's all in vain
We're just not birds of a feather
Isn't it lonely together?

And we've got nothing in common but our name and our shame
And the blame for letting passion's foolish flame burn wild
And now we've got to cover up the fact with an act
To atone for our mistake and to protect the child

And we've agreed to try
To try and live a lie
Baby, I think it's all in vain
We're just not birds of a feather
Isn't it lonely together?
