You say sometimes it's like I hardly know you And maybe there's some things I never showed you Sometimes you're certain but you just can't get it working at all You say to yourself, somebody better Will understand you more than I ever I'll shake his hand and smile and say I understand And while I do That don't mean I don't think about you I know we said it's just as well That I won't keep you for myself But I don't want to see you happier with somebody else Why can't you just be lonely Why can't you just be lonely Why can't you just be lonely I know you need someone too This just feels so soon I know some things should just stay broken I'm well aware this should remain unspoken But I've been working on the things that I was learning all wrong I know sometimes I only twist you And maybe I'm too proud to say I missed you But what if here and now I tell you that I'm all figured out Or maybe I just like how that sounds I know we said it's just as well That I won't keep you for myself But I don't want to see you happier with somebody else Can't you just be lonely Why can't you just be lonely Why can't you just be lonely I know you need someone too This just feels so I know its seems beneath me But sometimes it's not so easy To wish you well and let you go And I said it's just as well That I just can't keep you for myself I don't want to see you happier with somebody else Lo-lo, lo-lo, lo-lonely Why can't you just be lonely Why can't you just be lonely This just feels so This just feels so Feels so soon Why cant you be Why cant you be This just feels so This just feels so This just feels so soon
