Romeo and the Lonely Girl lyrics

Romeo and the lonely girl

They seemed to hit it off

Till Romeo told the lonely girl

"I must take my leave, my love"

It was these few words I overheard

And thought, "I would move in"

But before I could the lonely girl

Had fallen in love again

Oh poor Romeo

Sitting out on his own-ee-o

Oh poor Romeo

Romeo he had it rough

The guy you'd like to burn

But everything that Romeo had

You can bet it was well earned

For all his good looks there were scars that he took

And a lesson to be learned

Never judge lovers by a good looking covers

The story might be spurned

Oh poor Romeo

Sitting out on his own-ee-o

Oh poor Romeo [x4]

Romeo he like to put it around

He was everybody's friend

But in the end even Romeo found

On no one could he depend

For all his charms in someone else's arms

Lonely girl safely lay

When the train came in it had to leave again

And Romeo pulled away

Oh poor Romeo

Sitting all on his own-ee-o

Oh poor Romeo

Poor Romeo [x6]
