Lyrics
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 can't tell you how sorry that I am
That you don't understand my rhythm or my rhyme
And I can't tell you how sorry that I am
But you know how I get sometimes
But don't feel bad for me
‘Cause these feelings disappear
Every time that I'm shifting gears
I can feel the pain slipping away
I can feel the road in my hands
I can feel my heart beating in my chest
And a two-tone half-ton that really understands
Now should I head for the hills
Should I head for the ocean blue
Or just somewhere
That's far away from you
No, don't feel bad for me
‘Cause these feelings disappear
Every time that I'm shifting gears
No, don't feel bad for me
‘Cause these feelings disappear
Every time that I'm shifting gears (repeat)
On this lonely highway night
Oooh, lonely highway night (repeat)
