Lonely Enough To Know

If you wonder why an old dog howls when he sees the rising moon.
If you're puzzled by a grown man's crying at a sad old country tune.
If the water's edge doesn't seem so cold at night when the fog horns blow,
then, my friend, you're not lonely enough to know.
(Chorus:)
You must have someone waiting as day gives up its light
and someone's arms around you when you're restless in the night.
Someone's tender kisses and the light of love's warm glow.
Well, my friend, you're not lonely enough to know.
If the houses' lighted windows don't make it seem more cold,
if the sound of children's laughter doesn't say you're growing old,
if the warm touch of a lover doesn't seem so long ago,
then, my friend, you're not lonely enough to know.
(Chorus)
