D. : “I actually didn't write "You're Only Lonely" with Roy [Orbison] in mind, but for a very beautiful singer and songwriter who, it seemed to me, worried herself into knots with language inappropriate to her real issue. She was, like many artists, simply insecure about being alone. The song was written to reassure this wonderful woman that she was not, probably had never been, and would not likely be alone unless she wanted it. ... when Waddy Wachtel and I were arranging songs for the 1979 album ... and he was trying to find a song of mine faster than a dirge and asked, as only he can something like: "What the hell, Jake, don't you have anything like, you know, a single?" I said, "Well, there's this little rockabilly thing but it has no bridge and no third verse. I played it for him. He looked at me like I was mental and I said, "But there's no third verse!" He said, "So sing the first verse again!" So I did.” The song "You're Only Lonely" also appears on: “Coast to Coast” (Movie Soundtrack) 1980 "Fifteen Bucks" "You're Only Lonely" "If You Don't Want My Love" "The Last In Love" "Til The Bars Burn Down" "The Moon Just Turned Blue" "Songs Of Love" "White Rhythm and Blues" "Trouble in Paradise" More J.
