| I don’t want to keep on walking alone
|
| And I’m tired of reaching out and you say 'just move on.'
|
| Am I not, what you want me to be?
|
| Have you set expectations too high for me?
|
| I’ve got my bridges, burning bright
|
| Old memories yearning, night after night
|
| Love chose a bad one, my biggest mistake
|
| I’m gonna leave and hope the healing will take
|
| Lord have mercy on this broken heart
|
| And forgive her for tearing, me apart
|
| Oh, these lonely nights, well, I’ve seen quite a few
|
| Through it all I wouldn’t wish them on you
|
| It’s time to lift, this world off of me
|
| Break the chains and set, old ghosts free
|
| Live and love, teach and learn
|
| Win some, lose some, burn and get burned
|
| Lord have mercy on this broken heart
|
| And forgive her for tearing, me apart
|
| Oh, these lonely nights, well, I’ve seen quite a few
|
| Through it all I wouldn’t wish them on you
|
| These lonely nights…
|
| I’m talking about… yeah
|
| All these lonely nights, these lonely nights
|
| Oooo, All, these lonely nights, oh, yeah |
