I Have Been Lonely

[Verse 1]

You told me I'd regret it

On the day I left you

I had the nerve to laugh

As I walked away

Well, it’s been six months

And eighteen days

Feeling nothing but this empty pain

And I just had to tell you

Even if there's nothing

Left to say

[Chorus]

I felt the burning on the hurting side

Of a love that didn't work out right

The empty longing on a long cold night

I have been lonely

I've leaned on no one when the times got tough

When it comes to heartaches lord I've had enough

Know what it's like to live without your love

I have been lonely

I was going to show you

That I didn't need you

Now I need to show you I was wrong

Here I am knees to the floor

I don't want to live like this no more

I'm heartbeat in misery

Now all my pride is gone

[Chorus]

I felt the burning on the hurting side

Of a love that didn't work out right

The empty longing on a long cold night

I have been lonely

I've leaned on no one when the times got tough

When it comes to heartaches lord I've had enough

Know what it's like to live without your love

I have been lonely

I have been lonely

I have been lonely
