Steve Earle - Lonlier Than This lyrics

rate me

It doesn't get any lonelier than this

I believe my heart'll break

Tonight I prayed I'd die before I wake

With every breath I'm tastin' your kiss

And it's sweet upon my tongue

Until the tears fall one by one

It doesn't get any lonelier than this

'cause I'm on this road alone

My hearbeat ringin' like a hollow drum

I'm about as lonesome as a poor boy gets

And there's nothin' I can do

'cause it's dark out here and I can't find you

It doesn't get any lonelier than this

It doesn't get any lonelier than this

I'm as blue as blue can be

Just an empty place where your love should be

I'm sick and tired of walkin' round like this

With my heart outside my skin

Scared to death we'll never touch again

It doesn't get any lonelier than this

And there's no place I can go

Just the dusty corners that the shadows know

Maybe this is as good as it's gonna get

And I'll always be this way

I'll just wander this world callin' out your name

It doesn't get any lonelier than this
