Only Lonely


I'm a grownup girl it's not like I've never been
Alone in the night with the walls closing in
I could slip on some heels, fix up my hair
Call an old friend and go dancing somewhere

If I was only lonely
If I was only blue, only blue
If I was only lonely that's what I would do
But I'm only lonely for you

What do you do when what's true in your heart
And the way it turns out are miles apart
Out on the town I could search for a spark
Kindle a flame, take a shot in the dark

(REPEAT CHORUS)

(Bridge)
So if you come around Lord give me the eyes to see
If you're only lonely or only lonely for me

If I was only lonely
If I was only blue, only blue
If I was only lonely ......... I'd know what to do
But I'm only lonely.... I'm only lonely .... I'm only lonely for you
