Lyrics
When I'm Lonely
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I lay awake at night
Strugglin' to breathe without you by my side
Oh, my mind takes flight
Wanderin' through the universe for signs of life
What a short delight
Soul is out of body for an unknown time
Eyes open wide
What a life I live without you, yeah
Then I must remember that I'm still alive
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
What a life I live without you, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I'd do anything to have you
I still feel in love with you, but only when I'm lonely
I know I don't love you, I just want someone to hold me
I only wanna feel touch when no one else will touch me
How I wanna taste your lips, only when I'm lonely
Oh, oh, oh
Only when I'm lonely, yeah
Oh, oh, oh
Only when I'm lonely
Do you think of me
When you're wrapped around him in his embrace?
Do you long for me?
Do you reminisce when you see my face?
Have you let me go?
Or has my memory lingered? Well, I bet I know
It only makes sense, best you ever had is speaking in past tense
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
What a life I live without you, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I'd do anything to have you
I still feel in love with you, but only when I'm lonely
I know I don't love you, I just want someone to hold me
I only wanna feel touch when no one else will touch me
How I wanna taste your lips, only when I'm lonely
Oh, oh, oh
Only when I'm lonely, yeah
Oh, oh, oh
You should stay the night
Fuck me in the mornin', so I feel alive
Then you leave my sight
It was only for the moment that I felt alright
