lyrics

Leave Me a Stranger Lorraine Bowen


I’m going out tonight
I’m going out on my own
I’m going out tonight
And I’ve left everyone else watching tele at home
It’s great to be free
It’s great to be free


This is it, I’m here
And I’ve ost myself in a corner
In a crowd where the band is playing loud
In this pub I can think across my beer

It’s great to be free
It’s great to be free

Oh but my heart sinks fast
As I was enjoying my own company
This horrible bloke walks past and makes a suggestion

“Oh naff off, go away”

Has he got the hint
Oh no he’s coming back
With his foul, foul mate this time
Just when I thought this corner was mine
It was great to be free
It was great to be free

And it’s the usual story
“Hello love – you on your own?
Where’s your boyfriend
Lovely legs, shame about the face
Who sat on that?
Mind if we join you?
I can come back to your place!”

And my heart sinks fast
As I try to push them past
The anger tears across my face
As their jokes still fly
All over the place

There’s a solo man across the bar
He’s left alone, his thoughts left far
Why can’t that be me?
Why can’t that be me?

Leave Me Along, Leave Me A Stranger
Leave Me Along, Leave Me A Stranger
