Phil Lynott - Romeo and the Lonely Girl lyrics

[Verse 1] Romeo and the lonely girl They seemed to hit it off Till Romeo, he told the lonely girl "I must take my leave, my love" It was these few words I overheard Thought I should move in But before I could The lonely girl had fallen in love again [Hook] Oh poor Romeo Sitting out on his own-ee-o Oh poor Romeo [Verse 2] Romeo he had it rough The guy you'd like to burn But everything that Romeo had You can bet it was well earned For all his good looks there were scars that he took And a lesson to be learned Never judge lovers by good looking covers The lover might be spurned [Hook x2] [Guitar Solo] [Chorus x2] [Verse 3] Romeo he like to put it around He was everybody's friend But in the end even Romeo found On no one could he depend For all his charms in someone else's arms Lonely girl safely lay The train came in it had to leave again And Romeo pulled away [Hook] [Outro]
