I've Always Been Lonely
by 
Will Jennings 
Joe Sample 
recording of 1979 
from 
Take It Home (MCA 11770) 
I don't have to know your name 
Unless you really want me too 
All I really want to know 
Is what you want to do 
Hope there's something you like 
In something that you see 
I don't have that much to say for me 
I've always been lonely 
But don't be afraid 
I've always been lonely 
Like a song never played 
I've always been lonely 
But if you come with me tonight 
And stayed 
At least we'd know 
It wasn't loneliness we made 
You don't have to know my past 
It's much too much for me and you 
If the sadness has to show 
I guess I'll let it through 
We can go till it's gone 
And give it all we've got 
Sometimes anything can mean a lot
