If I Ever Thought You'd Be Lonely

Hold a candle to a naked flame



Ask the atheist his christian name



Try parachuting from a burning plane



Finding someone else you could blame







If i ever thought you'd be lonely



If i ever thought you'd be there



If i ever fought the alimony



Painted pony



You'd be there







Eskimo heart



Bedouin throat



A butcher trussed up in a camel hair coat



A crowning in the castle



A drowning in the moat



Ocean dried,



Desert afloat







If i ever thought you'd be lonely



If i ever thought you'd be there



If i ever fought the alimony



My one and only



You'd be there







One for the lady,



One for the gent



Signatures in wet cement,



And if you ever ask,



What i meant then i'd never know,



Then i'd never know...
