Oh my friend loneliness, where have you been? |
|
You left to the lure of the lover who left me alone |
|
But now you come crawling back, and |
|
I'll let you in |
|
And we'll slip back into grooves that we cut in ourselves long ago |
|
But there must be a better half, somewhere out there |
|
She lives a better life, a life that shares |
|
Shares with a better man |
|
The man who is there when she calls in the night |
|
Who says "Hey, it's alright" |
|
And oh my dear distance, |
|
I've met you before |
|
Longing for a lover who's lost on a far distant shore |
|
And oh my imperfections, are all that remain |
|
And the days when |
|
I'd love you and |
|
I'd leave you, and you'd wish that |
|
I would stay |
|
There must be a better half, somewhere out there |
|
She lives a better life, a life that shares |
|
Shares with a better man |
|
The man who is there when she calls in the night |
|
Who says "Hey, it's alright" |
|
I know what she looks like, her face and skin, her smell and the rest |
|
I know the feel of her soul, but |
|
God help me |
|
I just cannot find her address |
|
I've how I've tried but now all that's left |
|
Is my old friend distance and sweet loneliness |
|
There must be a better half, somewhere out there |
|
She lives a better life, a life that shares |
|
Shares with a better man |
|
The man who is there when she calls in the night |
|
Who says "Hey, it's alright" "Hey, it's alright" "Hey, it's alright" |
