Lonely Is
Lonely is whose heart is like a bird
Lonely is who's searched the whole world
Lonely is a tree with no shade,
doesn't matter whether the sun shines or fades
Lonely is a desert without sand
Lonely is having no other with whom to roam the land
Lonely is having up with no down,
so tell me, is that why you only wear a frown?
Lonely is when you are hurting and no one cares at all
Even when your broken heart is so many feet tall
Lonely is having music without a certain song,
can't help to sit back and think how you've longed
Through these words found lonely isn't the bird,
for it has wings to travel the world
It isn't the tree with no shade,
for it has the soil in which it bathes
It couldn't be the desert with no sand,
because they go hand-in-hand
It is not having someone to roam the land,
See, you shouldn't depend on man
It's good to have an up without a down,
that way, you'll never have to wear another frown
Lonely can be but doesn't have to be all these things
Depending on the tune, the melody you sing
In all these things lonely can be,
again, it depends on how you see
But what I am sure of is lonely isn't she
Lonely isn't me
