I'd Rather Be Lonely

Give me a city view

A glass of wine or two

And a strong imagination



Give me a TV show

A remote that I control

And a myriad of stations



I've thought about it

And I can do without it

I'm thinking I'll be alright



(chorus)

I'd rather be lonely

I'd rather have no love

Than to know love like this

If I know one thing

It's that I'd rather have nothing

Than to hold on to something

That just don't exist

I'd rather be lonely



I'd rather be lonely



Give me a ticket for one

To the saddest kind of movie

That's showing after midnight



Or just a map to read

A gas station cup of coffee

Me, the asphalt and the moonlight



I've thought about it

And I can do without it

I'm thinking I'll be alright



(chorus)



Well I've thought about it

And I can do without it

I'm thinking I'll be alright



(chorus)



I'd rather be lonely

Yes, I'd rather be lonely
