When That Lonesome Feeling Comes

by Mike Fontanini
When a little boy sits alone at lunch
When a little girl doesn't smile because she has braces
When a kid on the playground always plays alone
That lonesome feeling comes

When a loved one passes on
When a friend moves away
When time spent with a close friend runs out
That lonesome feeling comes

When a family breaks apart
When a child watches his parents divorce
When a little boy cries himself to sleep
That lonesome feeling comes

On a cold rainy day
On a trucker's long, quiet drive
On a long flight with no one to talk to
That lonesome feeling comes

When you're all alone
That lonesome feeling comes
Seeming to drape everything in shadows
The room seems so empty and lonesome
So quiet, so still
The heart breaks and tears soon fall
When that lonesome feeling comes
