Janis Ian

The days are okay
I watch the TV in the afternoon
If I get lonely
The sound of other voices, other rooms
Are near to me...I'm not afraid.
The operator, she tells the time
It's good for a laugh
There's always radio
And for a dime I can
Talk to god, dail-a-prayer,
Are you there? Do you care?
Are you there?
And in the winter
Extra blankets for the cold
Fix the heater getting old
I am wiser now, you know
And still as big a fool
Concerning you.
I met your friend
She's very nice
What can I say?
It was an accident
I never dreamed we meet
Again this way, your looking well,
I'm not afraid.
You have a lovely home
Just like a picture,
No, I live alone.
I found it easier
You must remember how
I never like the party life,
Up all night, lovely wife
You have a lovely wife.
And in the winter
Exta blankets for the cold
Fix the heater getting old
You are with her know, I know
I'll live alone forever
Not together now.
