That Kind of Lonely - Patty Griffin

Well this party’s turned a corner

Every room is in disorder

Now the nightingale won’t sing for us

We scared her away

Well you asking me a question

And didn’t wait to hear the answer

As we’re following the dancer

Falling down a flight of stairs

Every strand has come unwound

Every heart is all worn down

Everyone in this room wanted to be somewhere else

So tonight I found a key

And drive away a little early

Is the last time I wanna be that kind of lonely.

There’s a scar below your left eye

Fades away as you get older

Isn’t like you never told her

What kind of man you really are

I don’t know why it’s so surprising

Now the sun is almost rising

Cause it’s early in the morning

And the moon’s still standing tall

Every strand has come unwound

Every heart is all worn down

Everyone in this room wanted to be somewhere else

So tonight I found a key and drive away a little early

It’s the last time I wanna be that kind of lonely

That kind of lonely

That kind of lonely

That kind of lonely

That kind of lonely

That kind of lonely

That kind of lonely

That kind of lonely
