The Lonley
Christina Perri

The Lonely


2am; where do I begin,

Crying off my face again.

The silent sound of loneliness

Wants to follow me to bed.


I'm the ghost of a girl that I want to be most.

I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well.


Dancing slowly in an empty room,

Can the lonely take the place of you?

I sing myself a quiet lullaby.

Let you go and let the lonely in

To take my heart again.


Too afraid to go inside

For the pain of one more loveless night.

Cause the loneliness will stay with me

And hold me till I fall asleep.


I'm the ghost of a girl that I want to be most.

I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well.


Dancing slowly in an empty room,

Can the lonely take the place of you?

I sing myself a quiet lullaby.

Let you go and let the lonely in

To take my heart again.


Broken pieces of

A barely breathing story

Where there once was love

Now there's only me and the lonely.


Dancing slowly in an empty room

Can the lonely take the place of you?

I sing myself a quiet lullaby

Let you go and let the lonely in

To take my heart again.
