I've been sitting In a champagne room And on the TV They say that we're all through And there's an ash tray Full of cigarettes Talking to me Are we lonesome yet ♪ You caught me staring At the chandelier No, I ain't crying Smoke, it caused these tears This place is crowded Folks, they seem upset I'm just smiling Are we lonesome yet In here there's a price to pay It costs a lot more to stay Nobody wants to share Who told you this town was fair? Tell me, are we lonesome yet I just can't forget The voice ringing in my head Are we lonesome yet ♪ Somebody's talking In the mezzanine Up the staircase Past the ice machine I barely hear them Judging me in jest I think I'll ask them Are we lonesome yet ♪ This big ol' city Sure been hard on me Filled up with people As far as you can see Electric billboards Selling what comes next They're really saying Are we lonesome yet In here there's a price to pay It costs a lot more to stay Nobody wants to share Who told you this town was fair? Tell me, are we lonesome yet I just can't forget The voice a ringing in my head Are we lonesome yet Are we lonesome yet Tell me, are we lonesome yet
