Only Child

Do you ever get lonely?
You say you are an only child
I guess that's a no, then
But I wish you could teach me how
You say you can only be lonely
If you know what not being lonely feels like
I know what it feels like

And now I know
Never fall for the only child
Never fall for the only child
He doesn't care if you live or die
So don't fall for the only child
Never fall for the only child

But wasn't it nice when
We were kissing on the train?
Wasn't it nice when
You were holding my hand?
Or how 'bout the morning
We were singing Joni Mitchell and laughing
Didn't that feel good?
Didn't that feel good?

Well, now I know
Never fall for the only child
Never fall for the only child
He doesn't care if you live or die
So don't fall for the only child
Never fall for the only child

'Cause in the night
The only child
Doesn't know how to share a bed (share a bed)
And in the night
The only child
Is all elbows into my head (into my head)
Don't ever ask him to need you
'Cause he can't, oh
The only child can't even keep a potted plant
A potted plant

So when I am lonely
I'm not gonna go to you
I'll call someone with brothers
And maybe a sister, too
'Cause I deserve someone
Who cares what the hell I'm up to
That isn't you
That isn't you

'Cause now I know
Never fall for the only child
Never fall for the only child
He doesn't care if you live or die
So don't fall for the only child

Never fall for the only child
Never fall for the only child
He doesn't care if you live or die
So don't fall for the only child
Never fall for the only child
Don't fall for the only child
Never fall for the only child
