Lyrics
Misery Loves Company (Butch Leman) 3:45
Will you sit down, can I buy you a drink
Haven?t I seen you before?
You looked so pretty when you walked in the room
Will you stay can I tell you more
How I loved her, then she stopped lovin? me
Though she could never tell me why
But forget about her let?s talk about you
Is that a heartache in your eye?
Misery loves company, it?s a sad thing but it?s true
Yes my heart?s been bruised and battered I can see that yours is too
Misery loves company, and before this night is through
I?d like to keep some company with you
You can trust me; tell me what you?re feeling
You can be real with me
Cause I?ve got big strong shoulders
And I hope that you?ll agree
To some dinner, a little conversation
Later we may care to dance
There?s a moon uprising it?s full and it?s free
If we dare to take a chance
Misery loves company, it?s a sad thing but it?s true
Yes my heart?s been bruised and battered I can see that yours is too
Misery loves company, and before this night is through
I?d like to keep some company with you
