Lyrics Loneliness - Bette Davis

Loneliness

Loneliness
Takes the romance out of falling stars
Fills the wishing wells and fills the bars
Run and hide the scars of loneliness
Loneliness
Makes the winter’s night seem as twice as long
Makes the summer’s sunlight much too strong
Nothing’s really wrong, it’s only loneliness
So still awhile, we both have stories that are hungry to be told
Your eyes are warm, but I can feel your hands are cold
Still they’re nice to hold
It only takes a simple yes
The time we spend leaves that much less for loneliness
Like a love song or an old cliché
Has its hideout, but it’s never to far away
Look around, you found it’s only loneliness
So still awhile, we worn the night away and now it’s almost done
If you could stay, a bit of breakfast might be a little fun
Too much work for one
And though it’s just a simple jest
We’re stronger now, we’ve made the best of loneliness
Waits in silence while the shadows groan
Waits and wonders if it’s finally time to go
The yes in our hello said no to loneliness
Loneliness
