Steve Earle - Lonelier Than This Lyrics






It doesn't get any lonelier than this
I believe my heart'll break
Tonight I prayed I'd die before I wake
With every breath I'm tastin' your kiss
And it's sweet upon my tongue
Until the bitter tears fall one by one

It doesn't get any lonelier than this
'Cause I'm on this road alone
My heartbeat ringin' like a hollow drum
I'm about as lonesome as a poor boy gets
And there's nothin' I can do
'Cause it's dark out here and I can't find you
It doesn't get any lonelier than this

It doesn't get any lonelier than this
I'm as blue as blue can be
Just an empty place where your love should be
I'm sick and tired of walkin' around like this
With my heart outside my skin
Scared to death we'll never touch again
It doesn't get any lonelier than this
And there's no place I can go
Just the dusty corners that the shadows know
Maybe this is as good as it's gonna get
And I'll always be this way
I'll just wander this world callin' out your name
It doesn't get any lonelier than this

    I will not forget you, M. Guerraro. You are Free-to-go so, . . . are you happy? I sure
    do hope you are happier now, with your self 'n with your life. Because if you aren't , then it could be that i let you go for nothing. I still think of you, unexpectedly at times, for no apparent reason. In the middle of everything, i am separate.

    This is exactly how I feel. I sometimes scream your name hoping you'll come walking through the door, but you never do and each day that passes is another day I have to face without you. My love for you will never die. I miss you so damn much!

    Classic!

  27. A.... E....

    Check out a version I performed in Oslo. 

    Adam Eaton and Unnveig Aas - Lonelier than this (Steve Earle cover)

  28. J.... H....

    This ones real good. If Kris Kristofferson didn't mention Steve Earle in some of his songs I wouldn't know who he was. To bad more people don't know about him. Hes cool as fuck

  29. P.... ....

    Still sick of walkin' round like this.  No place I can go.  Only dusty corners that the shadows know... Maybe this is as good as it's gonna get.  I may always be this way!

    That's fine

    I'll just roam this world calling out your name...


    But it doesn't get...any lonlier than this.

    P.... ....

    Lust keep walkin just to the peaceful place be kind to yourself

  30. 7.... ....

    you'd have to be in your WRONG mind to thumbs down this.

  31. s.... ....

    Beautiful!

  32. P.... ....

    For my kids. I love and miss them so much.

  33. P.... ....

    Yeah...I agree. I tend to view my 'art' these days with a lot of alcohol. I used to be better than that...but not anymore.

    Thank you for your comment to my post.


    Peace...

  34. R.... ....

    Yes. I lost my soul-mate/best friend/common law husband of 23 years 4+ yrs ago, and this song spoke to me then and speaks to me still.

    Brilliant. Great art is not always "pretty"....the best art rips your heart out. Like this.

    R.... ....

    How you been?

  35. P.... ....

    This says it all: "It's dark out here...and I can't find you..."

    Also: "I am just an empty place where your love should be..."


    I know for sure: 'It doesn't get any lonlier than this.....'

  36. U.... t....

    awesome song

  37. T.... ....

    My heart just breaks when I listen to this one

  38. K.... ....

    @gjc82071 This particular song was used in the movie "the war boys".
    The favorite movie of someone dear to me.
    (That's why I also made the "short video" with this song about the movie)

  39. g.... ....

    The depth & quality of Steve Earle's music, never ceases to amaze me. I could really hear this song on a movie soundtrack. In my head I see a scene in like a desert or mountains, etc.....with a person walking or driving down a road, all alone...maybe after having suffered the loss of a loved one...or a breakup, etc. I'd rely like to ear his movie on some soundtracks. Anybody know if any of his music is in any movies?

  40. P.... ....

    Tonight I pray that I'll die before I wake...

    With every breath I am tasting your kiss...

    -And it's sweet upon my tongue...


    UNTIL THE TEARS...FALL ONE BY ONE...

    When I wake up.
