Morningbird - When I'm Lonely

All these years of staring in the sun
I paid my dues
Shined my shoes
What a perfect world it had become
Or so I felt
There's no one else

'Cause I've been out and on my own
In a sad and empty home
Always looking for a way out

I don't want an island in the sun
I don't need to be impressing anyone
I want a friend to call me up
When I'm lonely

Filled the space with fancy things
And showed my friends
They were all pretend
Never let a woman in
Couldn't stand to risk
Losing half of it

So now I'm stuck here by the phone
Maybe you got my number wrong?
Always looking for a way out

I don't want an island in the sun
I don't need to be impressing anyone
I want a friend to call me up
When I'm lonely

I'm trying everything I can
All I need is to be loved for who I am
And maybe I could call you up
(Maybe I could call you up)
If I could just call you up
Maybe I could call you up
When I'm lonely
