Ben Travis: Music
Never Been Lonely
(c)2002 Ben Travis)
(verse 1)
Well, I look in the mirror
and I see a hollow shell
of the fun loving guy I used to be
Well, I look at my life
and I see it’s gone to hell
No one’s really sure what happened to me
(chorus)
But I’ve never been lonely
I’ve never been lonely
No, not a single day
No, I’ve never been lonely
even though sometimes my only friend
is the bottle in my hand
(verse 2)
Well, I turn on the tv
and I try to watch the news
Not much going on that interests me
Well, I look in the sink
and I see it’s full of booze
Must have tried to quit again last night at three
[to chorus]
(coda)
Sometimes I think I would have
enjoyed the American dream, but
I just couldn’t make it
work out right
