Occasionally Lyrics

Melissa Etheridge

I saw you with your new friends
You wear them so well
Broken shoes and loose ends
Gee you look swell
Me Im drinking my coffee
And Im smoking cigarettes
Im a deputy of habit
I just cant forget
Im only lonely when Im driving in my car
Im only lonely after dark
Im only lonely when I watch my tv
Im only lonely occasionally
I saw you with your envoy
A consenting adult
Technique in moderation
But vogue to the cult
Me Ive got my strangers
To exile in the night
Im guess Im just addicted
To the pain of delight
Im only lonely when Im driving in my car
Im only lonely after dark
Im only lonely when I watch my tv
Im only lonely occasionally
Occasionally
