Oh I just can't stand the feeling
of the feeling when I feel like I do now.
And those lines I tell myself about
how full my life is seem empty somehow,
And I know each sad sensation, because
through the years I've felt them all before.
So I close my eyes and squeeze
them tight and try hard just not to think no more.
CHORUS:
Lonely feelings,
what are you doing here.
Messing up my thinking, filling these tired eyes with
tears,
I know that come tomorrow, all these feelings, will have passed,
It's
not how long they're here that counts, it's the way the hurt they bring can last.
2.
There's
a million things I should get done, but I spend the hours staring at the phone,
But
I refuse to pick it up, because I know that I can get through this alone,
I
know that time's the only healer, and with time I'm going to figure this all out.
But
as the time keeps ticking by I find I really have to say I start to have my doubts.
CHORUS:
Lonely
feelings, what are you doing here.
Messing up my thinking, filling these tired
eyes with tears,
I know that come tomorrow, all these feelings, will have passed,
It's
not how long they're here that counts, it's the way the hurt they bring can last.
REFRAIN:
And
it makes me so damn mad because I thought by now I wouldn't feel this way,
I'm
supposed to be so strong, so many friends help me along, but even all of that
can't take this hurt away.
CHORUS:
Lonely feelings, what are you doing
here.
Messing up my thinking, filling these tired eyes with tears,
I know
that come tomorrow, all these feelings, will have passed,
It's not how long
they're here that counts, it's the way the hurt they bring can last.
