What It's Like To Be Lonely

Headed back home, boarding a plane

Like an old ghost, thought I heard your name

And my heart stopped, skipped a beat for one second

Turned around, but who was I kidding?

Just a sweet girl, is she here to save me?

Will I finally get to move on? Maybe

Quick drink so that I can move closer

Ask her name, hoping for closure

So this is what it's like to be lonely

Spending every minute thinkin' 'bout you

But looking for somebody else to hold me

Only hoping they will know me like you do

Get out of my mind for a moment

You took my heart and marked it like a tattoo

They say that time will heal like a potion

My time has only got me missing more of you, of you

Lonely, lonely

Lonely, lonely

It's been a few months and not much has changed

Still check my phone to see if your name's on it

Drive past the places we used to go

Our song keeps spinning on the radio

And I know I sound a little cliché

But I, I never thought that things could change

So please, don't forget me when the summer fades

All the while, I'll be trying to replace your face

So this is what it's like to be lonely

Spending every minute thinkin' 'bout you

But looking for somebody else to hold me

Only hoping they will know me like you do

Get out of my mind for a moment

You took my heart and marked it like a tattoo

They say that time will heal like a potion

But time has only got me missing more of you, of you

Lonely, lonely

This is what it's like to be, this is what it's like to be

Lonely, lonely

This is what it's like to be lonely

All I want is for you to know

That I'm sorry for all the things I did and didn't do

All I want is for you to know

That I'm sorry for all the things I did and didn't do

If I call you up in the middle of the night

If I send you a text asking, how is your life?

It's just me checking in, insecure

Wondering if I exist anymore

If I say something and I started a fight

Between you and yours, yeah, I'll act so surprised

Surprised, surprised

I'll need a little time

So this is what it's like to be lonely

Spending every minute thinkin' 'bout you

But looking for somebody else to hold me

Only hoping they will know me like you do

Get out of my mind for a moment

You took my heart and marked it like a tattoo

They say that time will heal like a potion

But time has only got me missing more of you, of you

Lonely, lonely

Lonely

Lonely, lonely

This is what it's like to be lonely

Lonely

This is what it's like to be lonely
