When I'm Lonely lyrics - Hootie & The Blowfish

Eyes like an infant

Staring me down

She'll take anything that's tied up

In my glorious past

It's just 4 days 'til Sunday

When I say that I'm gone

Little one screams you cry

Tell the pain to leave me alone

It's just 2 days 'til Monday

Another week 'til the 4th

Is anyone listening or

Should I call on the Lord

Sometimes I breathe

Sometimes I see

Then I dream a dream that won't come true

And I struggle with lies when I'm lonely

Someone called my name out loud about 4 a.m.

It wasn't you so I let her in

Just to see what she wanted

She left screaming because I called her by your name

But the next day she came to call

And we finished our game

Alright now

Some days I breathe

Some days I see

Then I dream a dream that won't come true

And I struggle with time when I'm lonely

Shep plays piano down in

Shandon on the other side of Rosewood

You said he wasn't your type

But you went anyway

You left screamin' cause you thought you would

Call him by my name

Ah and you whisper

Why do I do this

I can't go through this why do I do this, why

Sometimes I breathe

Sometimes I see

Then I dream a dream that won't come true

And I struggle with life when I'm lonely
