Lyrics
I never looked at another man, not even in my dreams.
And I aint held another's hand since I was seventeen.
But he left me a month ago, said he needed to be free.
And I found myself a single woman, single suddenly.
Suddenly single, suddenly single.
I was blind to the signs that he was going to leave.
Suddenly single, suddenly single,
now I'm all alone there's just he kids and me.
I've got to learn a lot of things to make it on my own.
Life it doesn't do one speck of good sitting here by the telephone.
Or thinking 'bout the memories and the way things use to be.
But it aint easy being single suddenly.
Suddenly single, suddenly single.
I was blind to the signs that he was going to leave.
Suddenly single, suddenly single,
now I'm all alone there's just he kids and me.
A man I know he asked me out to dinner and a show.
I told him well, I have the kids and I just couldn't go.
But I think that he senses I'm as scared as I can be.,
cause it aint easy being single suddenly.
Suddenly single, suddenly single.
I was blind to the signs that he was going to leave.
Suddenly single, suddenly single,
now I'm all alone there's just he kids and me.
