I Have Been Lonely

You told me I'd regret it

On the day I left you

I had the nerve to laugh

As I walked away

Well, its been six months

And eighteen days

Feelin' nothin' but This empty pain

And I just had to tell you

Even if there's nothin'

Left to say

[Chorus:]

I felt the burnin' on the hurtin' side

Of a love that didn't work out right

The empty longin' on a long cold night

I have been lonely

I've leaned on no one when the times got tough

When it comes to heartaches lord I've had enough

Know what it's like to live without your love

I have been lonely

I was gonna show you

That I didn't need you

Now I need to show you I was wrong

Here I am knees to the floor

I don't wanna live like this no more

I'm heartbeat in misery

Now all my pride is gone

[Chorus:]

I felt the burnin' on the hurtin' side

Of a love that didn't work out right

The empty longin' on a long cold night

I have been lonely

I've leaned on no one when the times got tough

When it comes to heartaches lord I've had enough

Know what it's like to live without your love

I have been lonely

I have been lonely

I have been lonely
