I was so careless, I left you all alone
When I was running in the streets and carrying on
You were so patient, you never said a word
You tried to hide all your tears and bury the hurt
I was such a fool, I didn't figure it out
Till I came home last night to an empty house
I didn't know it was this lonely alone
I didn't know the nights could be so long
When someone you need so desperately is gone
I didn't know how bad the hurt could be
It took you walking out to make me see
Baby, please come home
I didn't know it was this lonely alone
It's only midnight but baby with you gone
It's forever since sundown and forever till dawn
And as I lie here looking at myself
It's hitting me hard how you must have felt
I'm sorry, I hurt you and I'm sorry, you cried
And I'd give anything if I could hold you tonight
I didn't know it was this lonely alone
I didn't know the nights could be so long
When someone you need so desperately is gone
I didn't know how bad the hurt could be
It took you walking out to make me see
Baby, please come home
I didn't know it was this lonely alone
I didn't know it was this lonely alone
I didn't know the nights could be so long
Baby, please come home
I didn't know it was this lonely alone
I didn't know it was this lonely alone
I didn't know the nights could be so long
Baby, please come home
I didn't know it was this lonely alone
I was so careless, I left you all alone When I was running in the streets and carrying on You were so patient, you never said a word You tried to hide all your tears and bury the hurt I was such a fool, I didn't figure it out Till I came home last night to an empty house I didn't know it was this lonely alone I didn't know the nights could be so long When someone you need so desperately is gone I didn't know how bad the hurt could be It took you walking out to make me see Baby, please come home I didn't know it was this lonely alone It's only midnight but baby with you gone It's forever since sundown and forever till dawn And as I lie here looking at myself It's hitting me hard how you must have felt I'm sorry, I hurt you and I'm sorry, you cried And I'd give anything if I could hold you tonight I didn't know it was this lonely alone I didn't know the nights could be so long When someone you need so desperately is gone I didn't know how bad the hurt could be It took you walking out to make me see Baby, please come home I didn't know it was this lonely alone I didn't know it was this lonely alone I didn't know the nights could be so long Baby, please come home I didn't know it was this lonely alone I didn't know it was this lonely alone I didn't know the nights could be so long Baby, please come home I didn't know it was this lonely alone |
