Lyrics This Ain't No Way to Be - Earl Thomas Conley

This Ain't No Way to Be

Maybe I was too lonely back then
To stop and think it all out
Was I lookin' for love or a friend
I’ll take you either way now
You’re not the first girl that I’ve ever known
But I am beginning to see
That bein' without you is bein' alone
And that ain’t no way to be
Girl, this ain’t no way to be
You without me, why can’t you see
Girl, that ain’t no way to be
Me without you, I’m livin' through
Girl, that ain’t no way to be
You know this ain’t no way to be
I never once thought about settlin' down
I only had time for myself
But I’ve done some thinkin' since you came around
But I ain’t thought of nobody else
No, I can’t think of nobody else
You without me, why can’t you see
Girl, that ain’t no way to be
Me without you, I’m livin' through
Girl, that ain’t no way to be
You know this ain’t no way to be
You without me, why can’t you see
Girl, that ain’t no way to be
Me without you, I’m livin' through
Girl, that ain’t no way to be
You know this ain’t no way to be
