[Verse]
The moonlight spills on the old dirt road,
A silence deeper than the stories told.
The creak of the swing on the empty porch,
Echoes the ache of a heart that's scorched.
[Verse 2]
The coffee's cold in the morning light,
No voice to greet me, no arms to hold tight.
A single chair at the table set,
The taste of regret, I can't forget.
[Chorus]
Being lonely's a shadow that never fades,
It lingers in the corners, where the memories stay.
It's the sound of your name in the whispering breeze,
It's the weight of the world, bringing me to my knees.
[Verse 3]
The banjo strums a mournful tune,
The notes drift away beneath the moon.
Every star up high feels so far apart,
Just like the pieces of this broken heart.
[Verse 4]
The barn stands quiet, the fields are bare,
A life once shared now hangs in the air.
Every step I take feels hollow and slow,
Being alone's the only friend I know.
[Chorus]
Being lonely's a shadow that never fades,
It lingers in the corners, where the memories stay.
It's the sound of your name in the whispering breeze,
It's the weight of the world, bringing me to my knees.
