You Who Are Lonely
Solitude's Embrace: Unraveling the Heartache in Colin Blunstone's 'You Who Are Lonely'
Lyrics
I just can't begin to explain
I am struggling to find words to explain
The expression on my face
The emotion on my face reveals my feelings
Let's just say that I've lost someone
I have experienced the loss of someone
And losing leaves it's trace
The impact of loss leaves its mark
And I won't dare to pretend I'm
I won't pretend to be at the mercy of fate
In the hands of fate
Questioning how long until we receive what we deserve
But how long before we get what
Time passing before we attain what's destined
Comes to those who wait?
Referencing the proverbial reward for patience
You, you are lonely know
You, experiencing loneliness, understand
How slowly time can go
The slowness of time in moments of loneliness
When winds of sadness blow
In times of sadness, time seems to drag on
You, you are lonely, you see
You, who are lonely, recognize
To be alone is not to be free
Being alone does not equate to freedom
Nobody knows like me and you who are lonely
Emphasizing shared understanding between lonely individuals
It's not that I appreciate to
Expressing a lack of enjoyment in having love to give
Have love to share
The desire for love to share with someone
To come home every night and
The comfort of coming home to someone waiting
Know someone is waiting there
Highlighting the importance of having someone
And a home without love is no home at all
A home without love is not a true home
I'm hanging on to a dream, waiting to fall
Clutching onto a dream while waiting for a fall
You, you are lonely know
You, familiar with loneliness, understand
How slowly time can go
The slow passage of time in loneliness
When winds of sadness blow
When sadness prevails, time feels even slower
You, you are lonely, you see
You, experiencing loneliness, see
To be alone is not to be free
Being alone doesn't equate to freedom
Nobody knows like me and you who are lonely
Shared understanding between lonely individuals
You, you are lonely know
You, familiar with loneliness, understand
How slowly time can go
The slow passage of time in loneliness
When winds of sadness blow
When sadness prevails, time feels even slower
You, you are lonely, you see
You, experiencing loneliness, see
To be alone is not to be free
Being alone doesn't equate to freedom
And nobody knows like me
No one understands like me
And you who are lonely
And you, who are lonely
