For the life of me, I find it hard
To keep a smile on my face
Wondering where you are
Must be easy to say, "Love will find you"
When everyday you got someone to go home to
Lonely, you tell me I don't try
Lonely, you tell me I should lie
Lonely, with my heart on my sleeve
Lonely, want nobody to love me
Coffee for one, it's just me again
Salt and pepper shakers, they're my best friend
You told me it'd be different this time
Oh, I can't believe that I fell for that line
Lonely, you tell me I don't try
Lonely, you tell me I should lie
Lonely, with my heart on my sleeve
Lonely, want nobody to love me
(Why oh why oh why did I think that I could change you)
Well I'd rather be lonely than to try and change you, yeah
(Why oh why oh why did I think that I could change you)
'Cause I know no matter what I do
(Why oh why oh why did I think that I could change you)
Where I go or what I say, no, I can't change you
(Why oh why oh why did I think that I could change you)
No, no, no
Lonely, you tell me I don't try
Lonely, you tell me I should lie
Lonely, with my heart on my sleeve
Lonely, want nobody to love me
