Hootie & The Blowfish - Only Lonely Lyrics






Hello again
Your words they make me smile
As I drift away
In my little room upstairs

Oh I spend my nights
Imagining your face your touch
Then I realize
How I don't even know your name

If we could share our time
Would I disappoint your fantasies
I believe that you could be the one I'm needing
'cause I'm

only lonely on the inside
didn't mean to take away your dreams
only lonely on the inside
when you close your eyes to your deepest thoughts

I could start to give apologies
For all the stupid things That I will say and I will do
If we should ever cross the same place at the same time
Would your world skip a beat 'cause it was me

If we could share our life
Would I disappoint your memories
I believe that I could be the one your needing
And I'm

[CHORUS]

If I could give back your hopes your joys your treasures
Don't you think that I would change my world
But there's so many things trying to pull us together
Even though we're far apart I can still watch you walk away

Only lonely on the inside
Didn't mean to take away your dreams
Only lonely on the inside
When you close your eyes do you see me

(in your deepest thoughts do you see me)
(when you close your eyes, in your deepest thoughts do you see me)

    Every song takes us back to a moment in our life. Regardless of the lyrics just hearing this for me it was a brisk cold night in Springfield, Mass on my way to find my place in this world. Never forget that day. Next morning was flying to basic training and my life had changed.

    awesome, I'm trying to regain the respect and love of my children and ex wife after years of neglect and selfishness on my behalf.
    I'm now sitting alone looking at four walls every night thinking what a fool.
    my way of coping is through music like this Hootie magic.
    I think I can be the man they wanted but fear it's too late.

    m.... ....

    You know where you went wrong and I bet you know how to make it right....the best way to regain their respect and trust is by showing and doing right by them. You can do it.....but do it for you too....you gotta respect and love yourself.

    +michelle isaac It reminds me of a young woman named Kimberly, we dated and were great friends but she wanted something else, in 2003 she joined the army and went away. I only saw her 2 times after that. Every time I hear this song I think of her. She was lonely on the inside and didn't have to be.
