Lyrics
There it is
There?s a picture in my head
Wonder how right I am
She stares alone
A fire slowly burns
Wondering what she forgot to
learn... Cause
She used to think
That there was more to love than
Losing in the end...
We used to be the best of friends
Now she?s...
Staring at the walls
Still afraid to call
And probably lonely
Trying so hard to pretend
She can walk alone until the very end
She?s probably lonely
Probably lonely
Here I am
And the picture?s quite the same
Isn?t it so insane
We know the truth
We?ve know it all along
No other love has ever been so strong
So...
Ain?t it time we put our pride
Back in the hole where it was found
Buried deep beneath the ground
Instead we?re...
Staring at the walls
Still afraid to call
And probably lonely
If it?s ever gonna end
There will have to be a time we don?t pretend
We?re probably lonely
Probably lonely
If only one of us would open up the door again
Well I?m sure the other would glady take ?em in
Oh I?d let you in...
So if you?re staring at the walls
Still afraid to call
I?m probably lonely
Oh I?ve almost reached the end
And I don?t know how much longer I can pretend
I?m probably lonely
Probably lonely
There it is
There she is
I?m just so lonely...
