neil diamond - a good kind of lonely lyrics

when, we say good night
i got to feelin' blue
i'm holey when you leave me
alone, yeah
but in my heart i know
that you'll be back in, so
i may be blue but it's a
-ah oh oh yeah-
a good kind of lonely

i'm the happiest
when you're by my side
but there are times
when we must be apart
then i just think of when
you'll hold me close again
and i'm not sad 'cause it's a
-ah oh oh yeah-
a good kind of lonely

a bad kind of lonely
is the kind that you have
when love says goodbye
turns your heart inside out
makes you want to die oh oh
but as long as i have you
i know i won't be blue
you make me happy
just by bein' around, yeah
and when you go away
i'll never be afraid uh huh
i know you leave me with a
-ah oh oh yeah-
a good kind of lonely
a good kind of lonely
