Lyrics
[Refrain]
Listen, darling, to every word I say
I left you long before today
My sweet darling, don't even try to sway
Love is lost and I must walk away
[PreChorus]
I know I've said it once before
But now I feel it more and more
I know I've said it once before
But now I feel it more and more
[Chorus]
Only the lonely stay
When love's no longer served
The fire doesn't burn
They hold on so desperately
[Instrumental]
There's a truth in the dark
It's gonna break you down, so steel your heart
"You don't love me, you just lonely"
That's what my mind say
Your daddy left you guilty
That's what you don't see
And I give up trying 'cause I'm feeling worlds apart
And you'll never call it though you're staring at the clock
[PreChorus]
I know I've said it all before
But now I feel it
[Chorus]
Only the lonely stay
When love's no longer served
The fire doesn't burn (It doesn't burn)
They hold on so desperately (So desperately, so desperately)
And only the lonely stay
When love's no longer served
The fire doesn't burn (It doesn't burn)
They hold on so desperately (So desperately, so desperately)
[Instrumental]
Listen, darling, to every word I say
I left you long before today
My sweet darling, don't even try to sway
Love is lost and I must walk away
[Outro]
I must walk away
I must walk away
I must walk away
I must walk away
