The Lonely One

i was hanging with a girl i know

she was telling me a week ago

that i'm the only one

that she's really ever loved

i was talking with a friend of hers

telling her i know that what a friend deserves

is more than i can give

it's more than i can give

you know that i would give it all away

if i knew i could get it back

no need to question all the things i say

it's hard to take but it's a fact

i'm the lonely one

people say it's sad to think about

someone giving more than they're gettin'

but my taking made me figure out

that i'm the lonely one

i'm the one who's always walking out

your love has put me on the run

you know exactly what i'm talking about

you know that love is never done

i'm the only one

passing time all the lonely nights when i think of you

you can make all the right moves

but sometimes still lose

you know that i would give it all away

if i knew i could get it back

no need to question all the things i say

it's hard to take but it's a fact

i'm the lonely one
