Are You Lonely
Anouk · Sad Singalong Songs [2013]
How you come around [?] to growing
As you slowly fade away
You were standing tall but that's the past
As many other things, they do not last
[Pre-Chorus:]
Although I had to step away, step away
I'm wondering, are you lonely?
Ever since you walked away, walked away
It's so clear
[Chorus:]
'Cause when you're in the shower all alone
That's when you fall down
Not able to stand up again
At night, as you're turning down the sheets
That's when you feel your mind
When it's trying to go back in time
You don't even know how it all started
Still begging for my love, now we has parted
[Pre-Chorus:]
Although I had to step away, step away
I'm wondering, are you lonely?
Ever since you walked away, walked away
It's so clear
[Chorus:]
'Cause when you're in the shower all alone
That's when you fall down
Not able to stand up again
At night, as you're turning down the sheets
That's when you feel your mind
When it's trying to go back in time
Ever since you walked away, walked away
I'm wondering, are you lonely?
