about

Lonely is a man without someone, Lonesome is a state of mine.

lyrics

I AIN’T LONELY (I’M JUST LONESOME)



Chorus:
I ain’t lonely I’m just lonesome
And I don’t miss her I just miss love
And I’m not down tonight I just get sad some
I ain’t lonely I’m just lonesome

I took a penny from a wishing well
I guess I took it upon myself
To try and help my situation along
I gave a girl all my best
And then I gave her all the rest
Of myself but none was left then she was gone

Chorus

I took a girl’s hand and then
We danced all night and it seemed Heaven sent
But now all I’m left with is just this song
Cause she was someone’s else I guess
I should have known I should have bet
That I’d wake up alone come the early dawn

Chorus

Sometimes it ain’t the one that got away
Sometimes it’s just the feeling you can’t escape
Her ego led her to false assumptions
Cause I ain’t lonely I’m just lonesome

Chorus
