Loneliness Is Eating Me Alive - Merle Haggard, The Strangers

There hasn’t been one bit of laughter in this house so long

Just the howlin' of the wind asking why

I know this house ain’t growing but it seems bigger since you’re gone

And the loneliness is eatin' me alive.

If there’s any forgiveness in ye wrap it up and come on home

Yeah I may not change completely oh but I’ll try

And honey you have to hurry or there’d be no reason to come home

Cause this loneliness is eatin' me alive.

The bigger the house the harder the tear falls I found it out since your goodbye

And honey you’ll have to hurry or there’ll be no reason to come home

Cause this loneliness is eatin' me alive yeah this loneliness is eatin' me

alive.
