Lyrics
LONELY
CHORUS:
Somehow I've gotten good at being lonely,
But Lonely, and good for me.
When you came into my life, you showed me,
Everything I knew, I could be.
And when you sleep at night, I can hear you breathe,
I crumble down inside, you get a piece of me.
VERSE1:
I'm good at being lonely, never wanted this life,
Never wanted the heartache, and I paid the price.
I'm sorry, I'm not the man you excepted I should be,
I guess alone is the way it was destined for me,
So young and sheltered, but the life of the party,
Never understood how this really all got started,
You were his and I was busy with the life that I chose,
I wasn't used to the nice girl's, I was hooked on the hos.
When you smiled it made me feel like I finally found home,
Can't help the way I feel, so I shut off the phone,
Ignored the little signs that I cared about you.
Build the wall a little higher so you'd never get through,
Part of me just wants to change to be the man you deserve,
But the way you disregard, the way I feel is absurd.
You'll never understand I dropped them all for you,
I know you're sick of hearing it, baby, I'm sorry, it's true.
VERSE2:
I'm not saying I'm in love, I guess it's just the start of us,
That's me and you together and the hardest part is trust.
You never know what could become of our relationship,
But I'm not trying to piss you off because I hate that shit.
For once, I want to be with someone more like me,
Who is blunt and to the point, but never scared to see,
That I am everything they want but they would never admit it,
Go over all of the fights, but they don't want to relive it,
So, I forget it and reposition myself to let you in,
The most important part, put me first, instead of your friends.
I aint saying shut their mouth because everyone needs company,
It's not about the sex but I love it when you're under me.
Silhouette is pure beauty, I'm addicted to your booty.
When you look into my eyes, it's like you see right through me,
I would never hurt you, I'll protect you till my death.
Everything you've ever told me, every secret I have kept.
VERSE3:
It's hard for me to open up and let somebody in,
Our personalities are similar but together we blend,
Date the Rapper, it's a trend, not too many understand,
Tough enough to find a lover, but harder to find a friend.
When you're laying in my arms, I can't resist your charm,
I love the way you move around and grab a hold of my arm.
Squeeze my hand and press you butt up against my waist,
I love to hear you breathe in and the way your skin taste.
I already have a place in my heart set aside for a girl
who wants the same things I want out of life.
I'm sure you hear all kinds of things to make you feel upset,
My past is just that, my past with no regrets.
