Lyrics
I'll tell it like it is
I hope you understand
There ain't much more than this
Now it's out of my hands
I may not make a sound
I'm feeling sad and blue
I think I'll head on down
To lonely avenue
I think I'll head on down
To lonely avenue
Now my heart is broken
I'm telling you the truth
Here's the words you've spoken
You told me that we're through
I think I'll head on down
To lonely avenue
These words are hard to say
You ain't been off my mind
I go there everyday
That's where I'm killing time
I may start losing ground
For me that's nothing new
I think I'll head on down
To lonely avenue
I think I'll head on down
To lonely avenue
Now my heart is broken
I'm telling you the truth
Here's the words you've spoken
You told me that we're through
I think I'll head on down
To lonely avenue
