If Only the Lonely

The rain would fall but wouldn't bring me down, down

Silence wouldn't whisper quite as loud

The moon would shine but wouldn't find me praying for the dawn

Hope would breathe and I could reach this tired road I'm on

If only the lonely would leave me

Stop following me around

Like the moon I wear, the sun heard prayer

Or my shadow on the ground

If only the empty would let me

Feel one moment's peace

I'd finally be free

If only the lonely would leave me

I could live and let my heart stop waiting

Feel the fire only love awakens

Until that time, oh each sunrise is wasted, I can't see

The beauty in this world around me but I still believe

If only the lonely would leave me

Stop following me around

Like the moon I wear, the sun heard prayer

Or my shadow on the ground

If only the empty would let me

Feel one moment's peace

I'd finally be free

If only the lonely would leave me

If only the empty would let me

Feel one moment's peace

I'd finally be free

If only the lonely would leave me

If only the lonely, if only the lonely would leave me

If only the lonely, yeah
