All by My Lonesome
Solitude Serenade: A Heart's Symphony of Loss and Longing
Lyrics
All by my lonesome heart broke and then some
All alone, my heart is broken and more
Watchin' ol' re-runs on my TV
Watching old reruns on my TV
Drinkin' and cryin' so close to dyin'
Drinking and crying, feeling close to dying
I'm next to no one all by my lonesome
I'm next to no one, completely alone
Thanks for sendin' someone by to
Expressing gratitude for someone checking on me
See if I'm alright
Ensuring I'm okay
I appreciate your concern tonight
Appreciating concern tonight
But I don't need no company
Declining the need for company
To offer up their sympathy
Rejecting sympathy from others
If it ain't you then I would rather be
Prefer being alone if it's not you
All by my lonesome heart broke and then some
Reiterating loneliness and heartbreak
Watchin' ol' re-runs on my TV
Continuing to watch old TV reruns
Drinkin' and cryin' so close to dyin'
Engaging in self-destructive behaviors
I'm next to no one all by my lonesome
Emphasizing complete solitude
Spent too much time behind the
Referring to time spent behind bars
Bars until you were gone
Reflecting on consequences of actions
Now I'm doin' time for doin' you so wrong
Serving time for wrongdoing
I hope and pray that destiny will bring
Expressing hope for a reunion determined by destiny
You right back here with me
Wishing for the return of a loved one
But until then I'll hold you in my dreams
Temporary solace in dreams until reunion
All by my lonesome heart broke and then some
Repeating the theme of loneliness and heartbreak
Watchin' ol' re-runs on my TV
Continuing to find solace in TV reruns
Drinkin' and cryin' so close to dyin'
Maintaining self-destructive coping mechanisms
I'm next to no one all by my lonesome
Reiterating complete isolation
I'm next to no one all by my lonesome
Emphasizing the enduring state of solitude
