Hootie & The Blowfish - Only Lonely lyrics

As I drift away in my little room upstairs

Oh I spend my days imagining your face, your touch

Then I realise how I don't even know your name

If we could share our time would I disappoint your fantasies ?

I belive that I could be the one you're 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 you could be the one I'm needing

And 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

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

That even thouhg we're far apart, I can still watch you walk away

So much I gotta say

Only lonely on the inside, only lonely on the inside

When you close your eyes what do you see ?

Only lonely on the inside

Didn't mean to take away your dreams

I'm only lonely on the inside

When you close your eyes, what do you see ?

Only lonely on the inside

I didn't mean, I didn't mean to steal your dreams away

Only lonely on the inside

When you close your eyes to your deepest thoughts, do you see me ?

Only lonely on the inside

I'm only lonely when you're gone

I see, I see

I'm only lonely, I'm only lonely on the inside
