The Deepest Kind of Lonely
When I can longer see
What you've ever seen in me
The deepest kind of lonely
Is setting in
When I can no longer say
That I'm walking in our way
The time has come
Arrest me for my sins
And now it begins
Waiting for the news
On a chance for me and you
My request and my advice
Can't be the same
You will do what you have to
And choose the pain or laughter
Or take off your ring
And leave behind my name
Saying I'm to blame
And it's all to my shame
When you can no longer feel
We're at the top of the wheel
You can just climb off
Or try another ride
If we are no longer heard
And no longer held
I can't have you
So I'll write another life
Where low's the new high
Waiting for the news
On a chance for me and you
My request and my advice
Can't be the same
You will do what you have to
And choose the pain or laughter
Or take off your ring
And leave behind my name
Saying I'm to blame
And it's all to my shame
You could say we're still young
But some things have gotten old
And the pictures that we hung
Tell a sad story in the cold
This is no way to live
Now that we both know
Something's got to give
Or someone's got to go
When we can no longer say it
But we can't seem to step away
When we can no longer pray for it
And neither one can stay
When I'm no longer in your heart
And I can't make you believe
When we're already torn apart
Then I know you're best to leave
Maybe there's still one thing we can do together
And take a while to grieve
Waiting for the news
On a chance for me and you
My request and my advice
Can't be the same
You will do what you have to
And choose the pain or laughter
Or take off your ring
And leave behind my name
Saying I'm to blame
And it's such a damn shame
What you've ever seen in me
The deepest kind of lonely
Is setting in
When I can no longer say
That I'm walking in our way
The time has come
Arrest me for my sins
And now it begins
Waiting for the news
On a chance for me and you
My request and my advice
Can't be the same
You will do what you have to
And choose the pain or laughter
Or take off your ring
And leave behind my name
Saying I'm to blame
And it's all to my shame
When you can no longer feel
We're at the top of the wheel
You can just climb off
Or try another ride
If we are no longer heard
And no longer held
I can't have you
So I'll write another life
Where low's the new high
Waiting for the news
On a chance for me and you
My request and my advice
Can't be the same
You will do what you have to
And choose the pain or laughter
Or take off your ring
And leave behind my name
Saying I'm to blame
And it's all to my shame
You could say we're still young
But some things have gotten old
And the pictures that we hung
Tell a sad story in the cold
This is no way to live
Now that we both know
Something's got to give
Or someone's got to go
When we can no longer say it
But we can't seem to step away
When we can no longer pray for it
And neither one can stay
When I'm no longer in your heart
And I can't make you believe
When we're already torn apart
Then I know you're best to leave
Maybe there's still one thing we can do together
And take a while to grieve
Waiting for the news
On a chance for me and you
My request and my advice
Can't be the same
You will do what you have to
And choose the pain or laughter
Or take off your ring
And leave behind my name
Saying I'm to blame
And it's such a damn shame
