It was a lonely holiday I was alone, you were away In Fayetteville or in another state There's so many towns I hate When you leave me, it breaks me like a bone But it's never as bad as when you come home I've thought so much about suicide Parts of me have already died Lonely, baby I'm not lonely Baby I'm not, I've got my imaginary friends Happy, baby I'm so happy Baby I'm so, I've got my imaginary friends And if you don't love me, would you please pretend? It was a lonely holiday I was alone, I was afraid The bedroom walls were closing in It must be closing time again When you leave me, it breaks me like the note That you said got stuck in your throat I've thought so much about suicide Parts of me have already died Lonely, baby I'm not lonely Baby I'm not, I've got my imaginary friends Happy, baby I'm so happy Baby I'm so, I've got my imaginary friends And if you don't love me, would you please pretend? Lonely, baby I'm not lonely Baby I'm not, I've got my imaginary friends Happy, baby I'm so happy Baby I'm so, I've got my imaginary friends And if you don't love me, would you please pretend? And if you don't love me, would you please pretend?
