lyrics

If I’m going to be lonely
People want to see me happy
It makes them think that they’ll survive
Maybe sometime that will happen
Right now I just don’t feel alive

It’s been months now since you left me
Since we gathered round your grave
My friends say it’s time to start again
Time to crawl out of my cave

If I’m going to be lonely, I’d just as soon be alone
There’s no point in pretending that you’ll soon be coming home
While I’m sleeping in the evening, I’ll remember your embrace
But when I wake up in the morning, will I still recall your face?

Someday I will learn to breathe again
I’ll remember how to walk
I’ll learn how to laugh and dance again,
When that happens, then we’ll talk

If I’m going to be lonely, I’d just as soon be alone
There’s no point in pretending that you’ll soon be coming home
While I’m sleeping in the evening, I’ll remember your embrace
But when I wake up in the morning, will I still recall your face?
When I wake up in the morning, will I still recall your face?
