Loneliness

Loneliness

Takes the romance out of falling stars

Fills the wishing wells and fills the bars

Run and hide the scars of loneliness

Loneliness

Makes the winter's night seem twice as long

Makes the summer sunlight much too strong

Nothing's really wrong

It's only loneliness

So stay awhile

We both have stories that are hungry to be told

Your eyes are warm but I can feel your hands are cold

Still they're nice to hold

It only takes a simple yes

The time we spend leaves that much less for

Loneliness

Like a love song or an old cliche

Has it's hideouts but it's never far away

Look around you've found

It's only loneliness

So stay awhile

We've worn the night away and now it's almost done

If you could stay a bit of breakfast might be fun

It's too much work for one

And though it's just a simple guess

We're stronger now we've made the best of

Loneliness

Waits in silence while the shadows grow

Waits and wonders if it's finally time to go

The yes in our hello said no to

Loneliness
