Now as you eat, don't think of the one you love
And on the street, don't look at the sky above
Hey, there's no one home, don't expect nothing,
'Cause nobody wants a lonely heart

Now like a dog who's homeless and can't be sleeping
Like a log, he knows that's he's best off keeping
Out of sight--don't expect nothing,
'Cause nobody wants a lonely heart

And in the door, there's nobody coming through
It anymore, but I'm looking through it to
Some other way--don't expect nothing,
'Cause nobody wants a lonely heart

Now as you eat, don't think of the one you love
And on the street, don't look at the sky above
There's no one home, don't expect nothing
'Cause nobody wants a lonely heart
