In the Room

I sing alone in my room

When I'm trying to work out my gloom

But gospel and jazz and rhythm and blues

The songs that I sing remind me of you

I wonder if you hear my cry

Do you know how deep it's hurting inside

Well in case you're not listening

I'm sadder than Billie's last blues

I thought that in love I was wise

But lately I've been paralyzed

Your leaving me sure ain't the end of the world

But I'm too melancholy to find a new girl

So I'll ignore the flowers in bloom

And pretend that there's no full moon

And until I'm ready I'll just sing alone in my room

I know that I should have more pride

But lately I've been paralyzed

Your leaving me sure ain't the end of the world

But I'm too melancholy to find a new girl

So I'll ignore the flowers in bloom

And pretend that there's no full moon

So until I'm stronger you'll find me alone in my room

If the lonely lasts longer I'll just sing alone in my room

Since you left me solo

I'll just sing alone in my room
