Leaving Lonliness Alone, Lyrics
VERSE 1 Tempo 145
Today he said goodbye guess I’m spose to cry but hey I don’t miss him anyway
But now there’s a big ole’ space and it needs replacing and yeah, got an idea or two…
I’ll have a good cry / for a day / or 2 / then I got plenty else to do
I’m not lookin back / Lookin ahead / on down the road / Leavin lonliness alone
CHORUS
Oh yeah / Uh huh / that’s right / cause I have better things to do
Don’t ya know it / I’ll get right through it / nothin to it / leaving lonliness alone
VERSE 2
Maybe I’ll hit the coast skate the boardwalk and sing tangled up in blue
I’ll take the long way home yeah the scenic route I’ll run my tired toes through the sand
Cruisin on / steady rockin cornerin / rails without a care in the world
I’ll just breathe / Feelin the sun / I’m moving on / leaving lonliness alone
CHORUS
Oh yeah / Uh huh / that’s right / cause I got plenty else to do
Don’t ya know it / I’ll get right through it / nothin to it / leaving lonliness alone
BRIDGE
I felt the blade touch my heart / but it did not touch my soul I’m still flying with a broken wing
Flying closer to the ground brings a new view to things I can see it now… Leaving lonliness alone
VERSE 3
And it’s not easy to see but it’s not about me oh no you had other things in mind
I’ll press the rose you gave me in my fav orite book on the shelf and I’m movin on
Down the hall / I’ll see your face / then it’s gone / like a moment in time
And your kiss / just like the mist / gone with the sun / leaving lonliness alone
CHORUS
Oh yeah / Uh huh / that’s right / cause I got plenty else to do
Don’t ya know it / I’ll get right through it / nothin to it / leaving lonliness alone
