Lonesome Town.

Isn’t it amazing how the heart can do a complete 180 in the span of just 2 days? It’s hard to believe the same guy who inspired Say You’re Sorry inspired this song. But it’s true. Has this ever happened to you, friends? xoxo

I look into your eyes, love
And I want to paint the picture I see behind them
There’s so much beauty, can’t you see?
I’ve never been good at this, never thought I’d want somebody so much
But you’ve managed to make me come undone
And you’re the only one who can put me back together

Your eyes are like a canvass
A work of art I want to jump into
And just get lost in you

I always say too much when I’m around you
But I love that you never seem to mind
You have a way of seeing right through everything I try to hide
Somehow you’ve found a way to fill the emptiness of my loneliness
I know I’m not the type of girl who should say this, but I have to
I know you’re with her, but I can’t help but wonder
How it would be if she wasn’t around
Could you save me from this lonesome, lonesome town?

I’ve practiced this speech in my head
I’ve worked and reworked everything I’ve wanted to say
But would it even make a difference in the end
When words are just words anyway?
It’s hard to see her with you
Knowing she’s the one you run to

People hear but never listen
I feel their touch, but can never seem to bridge this distance

I always say too much when I’m around you
But I love that you never seem to mind
You have a way of seeing right through everything I try to hide
Somehow you’ve found a way to fill the emptiness of my loneliness
I know I’m not the type of girl who should say this, but I have to
I know you’re with her, but I can’t help but wonder
How it would be if she wasn’t around
Could you save me from this lonesome, lonesome town?

Away from the crowd
Away from all this noise
Away from this lonesome, lonesome, lonesome town

I always say too much when I’m around you
But I love that you never seem to mind
You have a way of seeing right through everything I try to hide
Somehow you’ve found a way to fill the emptiness of my loneliness
I know I’m not the type of girl who should say this, but I have to
I know you’re with her, but I can’t help but wonder
How it would be if she wasn’t around
Could you save me from this lonesome, lonesome town?

I always say too much when I’m around you

I know you’re with her, but I can’t help but wonder
How it would be if she wasn’t around
Could you save me from this lonesome, lonesome town?

How it would be if she wasn’t around
Could you save me from this lonesome, lonesome town?
