I'm Not That Lonely Yet
Dancing Through Heartache: Embracing Solitude in Reba McEntire's Melody
Lyrics
I don't mind to give you a slow dance or two
I'm willing to share a slow dance or two with you.
I'm sorry I'm not at my best
I apologize for not being in my best emotional state.
I know you can see I'm incredibly blue
I acknowledge that you can see I'm feeling very sad.
But I'm not that lonely yet
Despite my sadness, I haven't reached a point of extreme loneliness.
I look in your eyes while you're dancing with me
I gaze into your eyes while we dance together.
And try to fulfill your request
I try to fulfill your dance-related requests.
But don't ask for favors when it's time to leave
Don't ask for additional favors when it's time for us to part ways.
Cause I'm not that lonely yet
My level of loneliness hasn't escalated to the point where I seek more companionship.
Now don't say you want me
Don't express a desire for a deeper emotional connection.
I've heard that before
I've heard such expressions before.
The words weigh like stones in my head
Those words weigh heavily on my mind like stones.
There may come a time when I'll think of you more
There might be a time when I'll think of you more, but it's not now.
But I'm not that lonely yet
Despite potential future feelings, I'm not extremely lonely at the moment.
It's nice to be dancing
It's enjoyable to dance to waltzes again.
To waltzes again
Dancing may help in forgetting.
And maybe it helps to forget
Opening up emotionally, but not fully committing to a deeper connection.
You've opened the door but I'm not waltzing in
Although you've opened the door, I'm not fully embracing the emotional connection.
Cause I'm not that lonely yet
I'm still not experiencing extreme loneliness.
No I'm not that lonely yet
A reaffirmation that the singer is not profoundly lonely at this point.
