GOT YOU LYING RIGHT NEXT TO ME
BUT IT FEELS LIKE AN EMPTY BED
TRY TO TELL YOU WHAT I’M THINKING
BUT YOU DON’T HEAR A WORD I’VE SAID
I PUT MY ARMS AROUND YOU
IT’S LIKE HANGING ON THIN AIR
I LOOK IN YOUR EYES
AND I KNOW THERE’S NO ONE THERE,
NO ONE THERE

YOU TURN AWAY AT NIGHT
PRETEND YOU’VE GONE TO SLEEP
I NEVER HEAR YOU, NEVER HEAR YOU LAUGH
AND I NEVER SEE YOU WEEP
IT’S LIKE A LIGHT HAS TURNED OFF
YOU DISAPPEARED IN THE DARK
OUR BODIES LIVE TOGETHER
BUT OUR HEARTS LIVE APART

 

I’M SO LONELY BEING WITH YOU
THAT I’D RATHER , RATHER LIVE ALONE
I FEEL SO LONELY LIVING WITH YOU
I’M BE BETTER OFF
ON MY OWN

(REPEAT FIRST VERSE)

I’M SO LONELY BEING WITH YOU
SOMETIMES IT TAKES MY BREATH AWAY
I FEEL SO LONELY LIVING WITH YOU
I’D BE BETTER OFF
ALL ALONE
