Lonely At The Tell Frannie I'm sorry she didn't get to know her dad I'll bet he's sorry he didn't get to know you too Tell her there'll be people saying things that make her sad How her daddy felt alone, how he was hurtin' bad I guess that won't be too far from the truth Chorus: Yeah, it's lonely at the top Happy is one thing it's not I was jaded, suffocated; it got too hard to breathe But never got as high as I needed to be You know life becomes worthless when they steal your dreams I just couldn't live with what was left for me And I couldn't run far enough from the truth - what's the use? Chorus: Yeah, it's lonely at the top Happy is one thing it's not Before you know you find yourself alone and looking down No one there can help you stop before you hit the ground It's lonely at the top Tell Frannie I'm sorry - I better kiss her when she cries I'm sorry I left her, never said goodbye Didn't mean to leave you all alone but then the music died Though the song remains the same, I couldn't live that lie You know that ain't too far from the truth And you know that ain't too far from the truth Chorus: Yeah, it's lonely at the top Happy's one thing it's not Before you know you find yourself alone and looking down No one there to help you stop before you hit the ground Yeah, it's lonely at the top Yeah, it's lonely at the top It's lonely
