Lyrics
Somebody help me
Feeling in need of assistance or support
I can't do it on my own
Expressing inability to handle a situation alone
You break your word, not enough
Not keeping one's promise; insufficient commitment
You end up breaking your back bone
Consequences of not keeping promises, leading to hardship
I must have been dreaming
Reflecting on a past experience that felt unreal or imagined
And dreamt you climbed into my bed
Imagining someone close sharing an intimate moment
But in the morning I woke up
Realizing the imagined scenario was not real upon waking up
And the whole thing was in my head
Understanding the entire experience was a product of the mind
Lonely love, lonely love
Describing the emotion of love as isolating and desolate
Might be forever
Suggesting that the feeling of lonely love might be everlasting
For all the better lonely loves
Speculating on the potential enduring nature of solitary affection
We could keep going
Considering the possibility of continuing a relationship
And let this get out of hand
Allowing a situation to escalate beyond control
It'd be nothing new
Indicating that such situations are not unusual
For me or for your boyfriend's band
Suggesting that similar situations occur with a partner's musical group
Stone cold sober
Being completely sober but still emotionally affected
But you still get me high
Despite sobriety, experiencing elevated emotions
Go ahead, I could laugh with you all day
Expressing a willingness to share laughter throughout the day
Make love to you all night
Expressing a desire for intimacy throughout the night
Lonely love, lonely love
Reiterating the theme of love as a lonely and isolating emotion
Might be forever
Repeating the notion that lonely love may last indefinitely
For all the better lonely loves
Repeating the speculation on the enduring nature of solitary affection
But my lonely love, my lonely love
Possessive acknowledgment of personal lonely love
Might be forever
Reiterating the suggestion that personal lonely love may be everlasting
For all the better lonely loves
Repeating the speculation on the potential enduring nature of solitary affection
