Loneliness

Well I went out walking, but ended up talking to you While asking your name, I could see all your pain seeping through I asked, why were you crying? There's no need for lying to me You said that there's nothing wrong, I said that something must be You said, but you're just a stranger, you don't need my anger or blues I said, but we all need a hand, when we're standing on glass with no shoes So you said I'm tired of this loneliness, hiding out deep in my bones Ohh my mind is a mess and my heart is a handful of stepped on stones Cuz it's been too long Every evening, every dawn This loneliness, it comes upon me And it's grown so old All this emptiness, all this cold I'm not digging for sympathy or begging for gold I just want someone to hold But after a while, you managed to smile and you said Well look at me now, you would've thought all my happiness fled She said, you're also human, you've been through loneliness too I said, darling, the words that you speak, you know they are true But the sun always rises, and the spring always comes when it's time And it takes light to see shadows, it takes pain to see love truly shine So I'll wait for the sunrise and try not to miss shooting stars But I'm tired of wishing on magic that fades in the dark Cuz it's been too long Every evening, every dawn This loneliness, it comes upon me And it's grown so old All this emptiness, all this cold I'm not digging for sympathy or begging for gold I just want someone to hold Ohh someone to hold Ohh someone to hold
