Lyrics:
Morning... (Mor-or-ning)
Seems to come so slow.
Knowing... (Know-ow-ing)
How I need this warming glow.

Foolishly, I've made you cry...
Confident, you never say goodbye.

Darling, that's the reason why,
That even in a crowd, laughing out loud, I'm lonely. (Lonely)
For I love you only. And without you,
Every night's... just another lonely night.

Falling... (Just another)
Tears are falling from my eyes.
I'm calling (Just another)
Out your name, tearful sigh.

How I pray it's not too late.
All my life for you I'll wait.
Just call me I won't hesitate,
For when you left you took the best of me.

I love you, can't you see?
Since you've been gone,
Every night is... just another lonely night.

(Just another)
Since you've been gone my life is so lonely, baby, baby.
It's just-a (Just another)
Even... (?)

(Just another)
Oh, it's all I need is you only.
Hmmm

(Just another)
I'm just no good without you, baby.
I'm just-a lonely, lonely


Lyrics to be disputed:
Near the end of the song Paul mentions the sun, saying... "Even the/my? sun is ( )?...
Hoping?
Hopeful?
So Blue?
I chose, "Even the sun is so blue"...
Whatever the case may be either one is more than enough...

Each to his own, but pauls vocals was as good as the Temps got in my humble estimation, such pleading,and sincerity.

I cant get over the fact that this group is gone. Most people out there dont even know who Paul Williams,David Ruffin, Eddie Kendricks, Otis Williams, and Melvin Franklin are. They were and are the greatest ever! Paul and Eddie are my favs! RIP....

I had the honor sittting with Eddie Kendricks and Dennis Edwards in April 1990 in the dreesing room at Sweetwater's (NYC). I mentioned to Eddie that 'Just Another Lonely Night' was one of my favorite leads by Paul. Eddie and I then sang a verse of the song... a moment I never forget.

Just Amazing from Paul, just magical. 

[Rustylugs]

Why this was not a bigger hit, ill never know !

[ashmarii1]

This is the "FACTS"! If you EVER need a song that pertains to affairs of the heart...go to ANY temps album(especially pre-'68) and just listen. These guys knew how to relate and connect to each and every listener. I know every song that was written for and recorded by them. Can do each one's part also(a SLIGHT difficulty keeping up with Eddie). Their emoting ability is still unsurpassed. I'm just glad that I had the opportunity to experience them LIVE at the Sports Arena, Los Angeles in '66.

@amuck123 i totally agree .there will never be another group like this ever.

[jdpatterson100]

[mrsawadogo141]

[garnoldmusic]

One of the greatest totally perfect recording performances ever. That is how I feel. What do you say?....Bro Heavy Just close your eyes and be THERE.

THE ORIGINAL TEMPTS WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN

[tumrani]

I am a huge Levi Stubbs fan, but Paul's version of this song knocks Levi's out of the box. He gave it much more passion.

[TheCounslor]

just another one of the unsung heroes of R n B.
