Well I been down this road before, down this road before
Just so dark and cold
Well I been down this road before, down this road before
It's just so long and alone
I said she kissed me goodbye, kissed me goodbye
Then she turned and walked away never coming back to me
Well now I'm asking her why, asking her why, baby
I just can't believe that you up and leaving me
Cause now I'm alone
Well now I'm the only one
Cause now I'm alone
Now I'm the lonely one
Now I'm the lonely one
Beneath this lonely sun
I roam the streets at night searching for my only one
Our love has gone so wrong
Our hearts are broke in two
I got one half with me, you took the other one with you
And when the morning comes I try hard to be stronger
But the way she got me feelin' I can't take it any longer
I'm the lonely one
Yeah I'm the only one
And now I roam the streets at night beneath this frozen sun
Well I been down this road before, down this road before
Just so dark and cold
Well I been down this road before, down this road before
It's just so long and alone
I said she kissed me goodbye, kissed me goodbye
Then she turned and walked away never coming back to me
Well now I'm asking her why, asking her why, baby
I just can't believe that you up and leaving me
Cause now I'm alone
Well now I'm the only one
Cause now I'm alone
Now I'm the lonely one
You say our love needs auto-tune
'Cause when we sing we're out of key
Me without your love is like the birds without the bees
Like the fish without the sea
It's like the snot without the sneeze
I'm broken down and bare, I'm like the tree without the leaves
I'm the moon and your the sun and it's the light that we acquire
Little lonely ember find her way back to the fire
We can burn together put it back up in the sky
We can yearn together let it down and let it die
I'm the lonely one
I'm the lonely one
Well I been down this road before, down this road before
Just so dark and cold
Well I been down this road before, down this road before
It's just so long and alone
I said she kissed me goodbye, kissed me goodbye
Then she turned and walked away never coming back to me
Well now I'm asking her why, asking her why, baby
I just can't believe that you up and leaving me
Cause now I'm alone
Well now I'm the only one
Cause now I'm alone
Now I'm the lonely one
Now I'm the lonely one
You said I love is out of tune (auto-tune)
Beneath this lonely sun (sun, sun, sun, sun)
It's out of tune (auto-tune, auto-tune, auto-tune)
