"Born To Be Lonely" lyrics - THE LEMON TWIGS

Her song's been the same for so long
The refrain goes on like the dawn with no one to see it
But she keeps singing like she means it
New games she's never learned to play today
She can't discern the rule but she's not a fool

[Chorus:]
I wasn't only born to be lonely
I need a new love to keep me alive
No use in crying out, I now am finding out
Show me a true heart, give me a sign

Her love's just the same as your love
Now it's safe and worn, its a door to another season
She sleeps alone, thinks "What's the reason?"
Time runs very slow when no one
Wants to go with you and that's nothing new

[Chorus:]
I wasn't only born to be lonely
I need a new love to keep me alive
No use in crying out, I now am finding out
Show me a true heart, give me a sign

[Bridge:]
I have friends, I don't need more
There's seashells washing onto shore
They come and go, I'm here all-day
Withering my life away
I take the bus, go to the store
No, I'm not hungry anymore
The scene is set, the dye is cast
My final chance is fading fast

[Outro:]
Old scars never heal like falling stars
You can feel their glow looking from below
