  • Tuesday night crowded bar
    Some guy lights a cheap cigar
    Bartender yells at him
    So he walks out and you walk in
    Right through that cloud of smoke
    Catcalls and dirty jokes
    Scan the room a couple times
    Find a seat right next to mine

    Lonely eyes
    Well, it sure looks like
    You just might
    Be looking for something
    For something, whoa
    Look at me
    And I think you'll see
    Those lonely eyes
    Don't have to be alone tonight

    They analyze your glass of wine
    Roll away a pickup line
    Now and then they check your phone
    Catch mine and let 'em go
    From the little bit I've seen
    They're the perfect shade of green
    Next time they come my way,
    Heaven help me, make 'em stay

    Lonely eyes
    Well, it sure looks like
    You just might
    Be looking for something
    For something, whoa
    Look at me
    And I think you'll see
    Those lonely eyes
    Don't have to be alone tonight

    Don't make me pay my tab, catch a cab
    Go home and kick myself to sleep tonight
    Gimme a sign, just a smile
    Baby, I'll be glad to lose myself deep inside
    Lonely eyes

    Lonely eyes
    Sure looks like
    You just might
    Be looking for something
    For something, whoa
    Look at me
    And I think you'll see
    Those lonely eyes
    They don't have to be alone tonight

    Lonely eyes, you don't have to be alone tonight Writer/s: Jason Matthews, Johnny Bulford, Laura Veltz
