"Lonely In My Grief" lyrics - THE WAR AND TREATY

The bell rang 'bout a quarter after three
You weren't there to come and see about me
Said I wanna know
Where were you?

Searched high and low and all that's in between
For a reason you'd come and see about me
Said I wanna know
Where were you?

Yeah, baby

I got the saddest phone call in my life
Sister told me another brother done died
I got one question for you, baby
Where were you?

Hey

I was so lonely, baby (I was so lonely, baby)
I was so lonely (I was so lonely)
I was so lonely
Lonely in my grief

I remember when you left me all alone
You thought I'd get weak baby, but I got strong
Said I really wanna know
Where were you?

I don't hate your skin, but you hate mine
I hate your silence, but you love mine
I got one question for you baby
Where were you?

I was so lonely, baby (I was so lonely, baby)
I was so lonely (I was so lonely)
I was sitting there in my living room, yes, I was
Trying to figure out what to do with you
I was alone in the dark
Trying, trying, trying to mend a broken heart
So lonely
Lonely in my grief
