Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ready to embrace the day as we both break
When the light stole in, it found me wide awake
Wasted from the sleepless night, I wished to touch your hair
Withdrew an empty hand, for you're no longer there
[Verse 2]
In between the silence, living is an empty space
Save the ticking of a clock whose hands are sweeping past its face
[Verse 3]
And I just don't wanna be lonely, no, no
Night and day
But as I look around me, I just feel that way
For you only
[Verse 4]
I turned my hand to something that would clear my head
But I could not forget the parting words we shared
I opened up my mind to all the pictures I could trace
But I could not recall the contours of your face
[Verse 5]
And always slipped away before I had the chance to say
I I did something wrong, please tell me, I'd accept the blame
[Verse 6]
I just don't wanna be lonely, no, no
Night and day
But as I look around me, I just feel that way
For you only
[Verse 7]
And I just don't wanna be lonely, no, no (Don't wanna be lonely)
Night and day
But as I look around me, I just feel that way
For you only
For you only
[Verse 8]
For you're no longer there
For you're no longer there
[Verse 9]
In between the silence, living is an empty space
Save the ticking of a clock whose hands are sweeping past its face
[Verse 10]
And I just don't wanna be lonely, no, no
Night and day
But as I look around me, I just feel that way
For you only
[Verse 11]
I just don't wanna be lonely, no, no (I don't wanna be lonely)
Night and day
But as I look around me, I just feel that way
For you only
For you only
[Verse 12]
And I just don't wanna be lonely, no, no
Night and day
But as I look around me, I just feel that way
For you only
[Verse 13]
I just don't wanna be lonely, no, no (Don't wanna be lonely)
Night and day
But as I look around me, I just feel that way
