Patty Griffin
That Kind Of Lonely
Well, this heart has turned a corner
Every room is in disorder
Now the nightingale won't sing for us
We scared her away
Well, you ask of me the question
Didn't wait to hear the answer
Your eyes were following the dancer
Falling down a flight of stairs
Every strand has come unwound
Every heart is all worn down
Everyone in this room wanted to be
Somewhere else
So tonight I find the key
And drive away a little early
It's the last time I want to be
That kind of lonely
There's a scar below your left eye
It fades away as you get older
It isn't like you never told her
What kind of man you really are
I don't know why it's so surprising
Now the sun is almost rising
Yes, it's early in the morning
And the moon's still standing tall
Every strand has come unwound
Every heart is all worn down
Everyone in this room wanted to be
Somewhere else
So tonight I find the key
And drive away a little early
It's the last time I want to be
That kind of lonely
That kind of lonely
That kind of lonely
That kind of lonely
That kind of lonely
That kind of lonely
That kind of lonely
That kind of lonely
Lonely
Lonely
