Loneliness by Nerina Pallot Lyrics

Loneliness (is a town on Sunday)
Loneliness (has a face and name)
Loneliness (be my silent shadow and stay with me, and say)
Loneliness (such a cold companion)
And the dark nights left like the day before
She's a cracked and sober smile
Standing by the door


I'm gonna cross my heart and hope to die
When the darkness fades in the morning light
I won't always feel this way
I'm gonna grit my teeth and carry on
And after all the clouds have gone
Be better someday, better someday, better someday
I'll be better someday, better someday, better someday


Loneliness (is a boy called Stranger)
Stranger still, this empty world
As I walk these city steps so melancholy
A phantom of a girl

I'm gonna cross my heart and hope to die
When the darkness fades in the morning light
I won't always feel this way
I'm gonna grit my teeth and carry on
And after all the clouds have gone
Be better someday, better someday, better someday
I'll be better someday, better someday, better someday


So lonely, ah
He laid me down to sleep at night
So lonely I could cry
I could cry
So lonely, ah
When I'm laying down to sleep at night
Don't sleep at night
Don't sleep at night

I'm gonna cross my heart and hope to die
When the darkness fades in the morning light
I won't always feel this way
I'm gonna grit my teeth and carry on
And after all the clouds have gone
Be better someday, better someday, better someday
I'll be better someday, better someday, better someday
