Didn't Want To Be This Lonely

The Pretenders

Well I didn't wanna be this lonely
Though losing you was a relief
From a life with one man only
Devoid of morals or belief

But I didn't wanna be this lonely
No, I didn't wanna be this lonely
No, I didn't wanna be this lonely
No, I didn't wanna be this lonely

I'm still not sure I did the right thing
To forfeit danger for good sense
But in my mind you're like a cash till
Breaking dollars into cents

But I didn't wanna be this lonely
No, I didn't wanna be this lonely
No, I didn't wanna be this lonely
No, I didn't wanna be this lonely

Hey!
Hey!
Lone, lone, lonely
Hey!
Hey!
Lonely

You'll find somebody else to suffer
And get to know your selfish ways
And I'll feel pity for the next one
When you start to ruin her days
But I didn't wanna be this lonely
No, I didn't wanna be this lonely
No, I didn't wanna be this lonely
No, I didn't wanna be this lonely
No, I didn't wanna be this lonely
No, I didn't wanna be this lonely
