Without Being Lonely
Alone, Not Lonely: Embracing Independence in Dakota Danielle's Without Being Lonely
Lyrics
Boy let's cut to the chase I know you want to know
Directly addressing the curiosity about her ability to navigate life independently as a woman.
How's a woman like me holding her own
Posing a question about her capability to manage her life and emotions without relying on a man's support.
Well I'm glad you asked not many understand
Expressing gratitude for the question as it's not commonly understood how she functions without a man.
How I can be fine without a man
Asserting her contentment and ability to thrive without a romantic partner.
You don't have to act like you see lonely eyes in me
Rejecting assumptions that her solitude indicates a sense of loneliness.
Just because I'm sitting at the bar don't mean I need a drink
Challenging the idea that her presence at a bar necessitates the need for companionship or a drink.
You don't have to keep me company this seat's fine being empty
Stating her comfort with solitude and that an empty seat beside her is acceptable.
What makes you think I can't be alone without being lonely
Posing a rhetorical question questioning the presumption that she can't be alone without feeling lonely.
I come here every Friday right after work
Detailing her routine of visiting the bar after work as a means to unwind.
To blow off some steam don't mistake that for hurt
Clarifying that her bar visits are not due to emotional pain but rather to release stress.
I'm stuck in my ways and I don't like change
Expressing a preference for stability and resistance to changes in her life.
I guess what I'm trying to say is being alone is okay
Summarizing her comfort with solitude and independence.
You don't have to act like you see lonely eyes in me
Reiterating the rejection of assumptions about her loneliness based on her presence at the bar.
Just because I'm sitting at the bar don't mean I need a drink

Now don't get me wrong I'm open to love
Expressing openness to love but with the condition of finding someone who perseveres in the relationship.
You just got to be the kind of man that won't give up
Highlighting the requirement of resilience and commitment in a potential partner.
You don't have to act like you see lonely eyes in me
Continuing to reject assumptions about her loneliness based on her presence at the bar.
