Something Worse Than Loneliness by Heather Maloney Lyrics

I gave you my money
I gave you all of my time
Sang for you daily
Lit the candles all around your shrine
I told you stories
Entertained you for a while
Gave you tears, I gave you smiles
Gave you secrets of mine

But how many times must I lay my heart out on your railway
And wait for the train I've been waiting for all these years?
I think I hear a whistlin' growin' near
I swear that it's comin' this time
I swear that it's comin' this time

I ran all the rubber off the soles of my shoes
I walked through the dark night of the soul for you
And I found one little light in that darkness
But I gave it to you, I gave it to you

And how many times must I lay my heart out on your railway
And wait for the train I've been waiting for all these years?
I think I hear a whistlin' growin' near
I swear that it's comin' this time
I swore it was comin' that time
Maybe I'm better - better off without you
Maybe you only would have torn me in two
Maybe you spared me from something worse than loneliness
I'll never know, I'll never know
