Lift the Lonely from My Heart
[Verse 1]
I am a lonely woman who loves you
Lonely, I have always been
Many things have found their way between us
But none more than my loneliness

[Chorus]
Waxing, waning, always complaining
Always trying to fix what already works
Pining, mining for a feeling I'm not finding
Looking to you to tell me what I'm worth

[Verse 2]
When morning comes, whistling comes the bluebird
While I try to find the will to wake
My loneliness, it blurs the days together
My loneliness, it pushes you away

[Chorus]
Working, cursing, in circles I am searching
Looking for a cure to lift me up
Trying, lying just to keep myself smiling
Believing that our love is strong enough

[Bridge]
Can you still see the good inside me?
Or do you see a shell of who I was?
The loneliness has grown so much, it shadows
You, the only one I truly love
[Chorus]
Coping, hoping for a way of outgrowing
These thoughts that keep me in the dark
Minding, finding, always such bad timing
To learn that only I can ignite the spark
Only I can lift the lonely from my heart
