It was dark it was lonely it was late it was Monday And I was looking and she was sittin' at the bar She was crying and I was trying to give her attention But she didn't seem to notice that I was standing there at all Two lonely people one lonely night Nothing behind us nothing in sight The later it got the more it looked right For two lonely people one lonely night [ guitar ] She looked up I was smiling I filled the glass and she stopped crying It was late it was Monday it was free They were playing some old love songs though I hadn't danced in so long She took me by the hand and I held her close to me Two lonely people one lonely night... For two lonely people one lonely night
