Only Lonely

Hootie

Hello again, your words they make me smile


As I drift away in my little room upstairs


Oh I spend my nights imagining your face, your touch


Then I realise how I don't even know your name


If we could share our time would I disappoint your fantasies?


but I belive that I could be the one you're needing


'Cause I'm only lonely on the inside


Didn't mean to take away your dreams


I'm only lonely on the inside


When you close your eyes to your deepest thoughts





And I could start to give apologies


For all the stupid things that I will say and I will do


If we should ever cross the same place at the same time


Would your world skip a beat cause it was me?


If we could share our life


Would I disappoint your memories?


And I believe that you could be the one I'm needing


And I'm only lonely on the inside


Didn't mean to take away your dreams


Only lonely on the inside


When you close your eyes to your deepest thoughts





If I could give back your hopes, your joys, your treasures


Don't you think that I would change my world


But there's so many things trying to pull us together


That even though we're far apart, I can still watch you walk away


So much I gotta say


Only lonely on the inside, I'm only lonely on the inside


When you close your eyes what do you see?


I'm only lonely on the inside


Didn't mean to take away your dreams


I'm only lonely on the inside


In your deepest thoughts, what do you see?


Only lonely on the inside


I didn't mean, I didn't mean to steal your dreams away


Only lonely on the inside


When you close your eyes, in your deepest thoughts, do you see me?


Only lonely on the inside


I'm only lonely when you're gone


Only lonely on the inside


I see, I see


Only lonely on the inside


I'm only lonely, I'm only lonely on the inside


Only lonely on the inside
