B.J. Thomas — I'd Rather Be Lonely lyrics

Lyrics

I’d rather my doorbell didn’t ring
Unless it’s touched by your hand
Let my phone remain a silent thing
Cause no one I talk to understands
That since you’ve gone away from me
I-I-I-I don’t care for memories
If I can’t have your love
I 'd rather be lonely
I can’t bare to walk down the street
That I used to walk with you
'Cause all the old friends that I meet
Tell me that true love will come through
I just can’t seem to make them see
I-I-I-I don’t want their sympathy
If I can’t have your love
I’d rather be lonely
If I can’t caress you tenderly
Please don’t let the sunshine on me
If I can’t have you’re love
If I can’t have you’re love
If I can’t have you’re love
I’d rather be lonely
