How Could This Love Be So

When we met we weren’t ready for what would unfold
Telling you things I’ve thought that I don’t think I’ve ever told
You kissed my lips under the streetlights and grabbed my hand to hold
Tellin’ me “baby since you’re with me i won’t be alone”

But time makes short work of love
Got me contemplating how it was
Got me wondering…

How could this love be so lonely
How could this love be so lonely
Baby but you say that you need me
So how come I’m feeling so lonely

When you call me you take up the time just talking about yourself
When we’re alone you say you want me through the liquor on your breath

How am I supposed to feel
When it doesn’t seem like you know me for real

How could this love be so lonely
How could this love be so lonely
Baby but you say that you need me
So How come I’m feeling so lonely

I don’t know what to do
I can’t keep on expecting things from you
I don’t know what to say
Besides we are not ok

How could this love be so lonely
How could this love be so lonely
Ya know you only call when you need me
And it’s leaving me lonely
