Flatland Cavalry - Lonely Then Lyrics

(One, two, three)

She don't ever look me in the eye when I tell her that I love her
Like a fool, I play it cool in the shade she keeps throwing me under
'Cause I thought love was supposed to feel like a fairy tale
But some days I wonder if I was better off myself

I was lonely then, you should see me now
Found me someone, but I still feel alone somehow
Dying to leave and my heart bleeds
For you to come around
I was lonely then, you should see me now

We weren't fooling anybody baby, didn't make it through our first snow
Idle hearts, well they don't keep warm when the cold wind starts to blow
'Cause I thought I'd be better off all by myself
But I ain't sleeping, barely breathing in my living hell

I was lonely then, you should see me now
Caught in a hole and I can't find my way out
Taking on water as I try not to drown
I was lonely then, you should see me now, oh-whoa

We're a dirty needle on a broken record
Everybody's ears, they were bound to bleed
But this new song I'm singing ain't a lonesome melody

I was lonely then, you should see me now
Found me someone and she loves me inside out
I had no idea love could be this loud
I was lonely then, you should see me now, oh-whoa

I was lonely then, you should see me now (you should see me now)
I was lonely then, you should see me now
I was lonely then, you should see me now (you should see me now)
I was lonely then, you should see me now
