If you look through my window and you don't see a light
There's no need to worry, hey, I'm doin' all right
Got a warm fire going and the radio's on
There's a difference in lonely and bein' alone

Now, I raised my children the best that I could
And I'm proud to tell you that they're all doin' good
They blow in like a whirlwind, they're here, and then they're gone
There's a difference in lonely and bein' alone

Lonely is only a bad place to be
If you're someone who can't stand your own company
Yeah, but me and myself do just fine on our own
There's a difference in lonely and bein' alone

Now, I might be sittin' here all by myself
But I feel the presence of somebody else
I'm just passing the time till He calls me home
There's a difference in lonely and bein' alone

I'm just passing the time till He calls me home
There's a difference in lonely and bein' alone
