Lyrics

[00:09.10] i was hanging with a girl i know
[00:12.48] she was telling me a week ago
[00:15.93] that i'm the only one
[00:18.03] that she's really ever loved
[00:21.58] i was talking with a friend of hers
[00:28.21] telling her i know that what a friend deserves
[00:30.84] is more than i can give
[00:34.38] it's more than i can give
[00:39.70] you know that i would give it all away
[00:43.79] if i knew i could get it back
[00:46.12] no need to question all the things i say
[00:51.57] it's hard to take but it's a fact
[00:55.84] i'm the lonely one
[01:18.17] people say it's sad to think about
[01:25.37] someone giving more than they're gettin'
[01:27.67] but my taking made me figure out
[01:31.75] that i'm the lonely one
[01:37.13] i'm the one who's always walking out
[01:41.08] your love has put me on the run
[01:44.96] you know exactly what i'm talking about
[01:48.98] you know that love is never done
[01:52.88] i'm the only one
[02:12.28] passing time all the lonely nights when i think of you
[02:18.42] you can make all the right moves
[02:23.76] but sometimes still lose
[02:44.15] you know that i would give it all away
[02:47.97] if i knew i could get it back
[02:51.87] no need to question all the things i say
[02:55.77] it's hard to take but it's a fact
[02:59.78] i'm the lonely one
