Less Lonely

I'm renting a space
In a city that's new
The kind you don't get to paint
With a parking lot view
No one knows my address
Or what l've been through
I've been stumbling home all alone
To a bed meant for two
And it's still less lonely than loving you

I say sure let's meet for coffee
To strangers and we do
But it always ends up feeling
More like an interview
Another number I won't save
A message I won't get back to
Yeah this plastic crowd can sure get me down
But to tell you the truth
It's still less lonely than loving you

It's still better than
Waiting at the window for you every night
It's still better than
Sitting in silence on the passenger side
It's still better than
Saying love you without the l
I swear, we weren't even on the same planet sometimes

Haven't quite gotten
All the boxes unpacked
But little by little
I'm taking my heart back
I'll admit starting over
Took some getting used to
And if running away is only a phase That I'm passing through
It's still less lonely than loving you

It's still better than
Waiting at the window for you every night
It's still better than
Sitting in silence on the passenger side
It's still better than
Saying love you without the l
I swear, we weren't even on the same planet sometimes

I'm renting a space
In a city that's new
And It's still less lonely than loving you
