Lyrics When I'm Lonely - Hootie & The Blowfish

When I'm Lonely

Eyes like an infant
Staring me down
She’ll take anything that’s tied up
In my glorious past
It’s just 4 days ‘til Sunday
When I say that I’m gone
Little one screams you cry
Tell the pain to leave me alone
It’s just 2 days ‘til Monday
Another week ‘til the 4th
Is anyone listening or
Should I call on the Lord
Sometimes I breathe
Sometimes I see
Then I dream a dream that won’t come true
And I struggle with lies when I’m lonely
Someone called my name out loud about 4 a.
m
It wasn’t you so I let her in
Just to see what she wanted
She left screaming because I called her by your name
But the next day she came to call
And we finished our game
Alright now
Some days I breathe
Some days I see
Then I dream a dream that won’t come true
And I struggle with time when I’m lonely
Shep plays piano down in
Shandon on the other side of Rosewood
You said he wasn’t your type
But you went anyway
You left screamin' cause you thought you would
Call him by my name
Ah and you whisper
Why do I do this
I can’t go through this why do I do this, why
Sometimes I breathe
Sometimes I see
Then I dream a dream that won’t come true
And I struggle with life when I’m lonely
