You told me I'd regret it on the day I left you
I had the nerve to laugh as I walked away
It's been 6 months and 18 days
I'm feeling nothing but this empty pain
And I just had to tell you even if
There's nothing left to say.
I felt the burnin' on the hurtin' side
Other love that didn't work out right
Empty longin' of a long, cold night
I have been lonely.
I leaned on no one when the times got tough
When it comes to heartache Lord I've had enough
Know what it's like to live without your love
I have been lonely.
I was gonna 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 wanna hurt like this no more
I'm heart deep in misery
An' all my pride is gone
I felt the burnin' on the hurtin' side
Other love that didn't work out right
Empty longin' of a long, cold night
I have been lonely.
I leaned on no one when the times got tough
When it comes to heartache Lord I've had enough
Know what it's like to live without your love
I have been lonely.
Ooooh... Oooh... I have been lonely...
Ooooh... Oooh... I have been lonely.
