Lift the Lonely from My Heart - Courtney Marie Andrews

I am a lonely woman who loves you

Lonely, I have always been

Many things have found their way between us

But none more than my loneliness

Waxing, waning, always complaining

Always trying to fix what already works

Pining, mining, for a feeling I’m not finding

Looking to you to tell me what I’m worth

When morning comes, whistling comes the bluebird

While I try to find the will to wake

My loneliness, it blurs the days together

My loneliness, it pushes you away

Working, cursing, in circles I am searching

Looking for a cure to lift me up

Trying, lying, just to keep myself smiling

Believing that our love is strong enough

Can you still see the good inside me?

Or do you see a shell of who I was?

The loneliness has grown so much, it shadows

You, the only one I truly love

Coping, hoping, for a way of outgrowing

These thoughts that keep me in the dark

Minding, finding, always such bad timing

To learn that only I can ignite the spark

Only I can lift the lonely from my heart
