Stay away from lonely places
And follow the crowd
Stay around familiar faces
And play the music loud
Be seen at all the parties
And dress yourself in style
Stay away from lonely places for a while
Stay away from lonely places
'Til you learn to live alone
Someone's outstretched arms are waiting
To stay with you at least 'til dawn
Remember that sorrow prospers in a heart that never smiles
So stay away from lonely places for a while
Stay away from lonely places
It takes time to learn to live alone
And someone's outstretched arms are waiting
To stay with you at least 'til dawn
And remember that sorrow prospers in a heart that never smiles
So stay away from lonely places for a while
