Ain't That Lonely Yet - Dwight Yoakam

Well I miss my mother And I miss being her son As crazy as I was I Guess I wasn't much of one Sometimes I miss her so much, I want to hop on the next jet And I get lonely, but I ain't that lonely yet And I love my sister Lord knows how I've missed her She loves me And she knows I won't forget And sometimes I get jealous Of all her little pets And I get lonely, but I ain't that lonely yet I roll over in bed Looking for someone to touch There's a girl that I know of But don't ask for much She's homely, and she's cranky And her hair's in a net And I'm lonely, but I ain't that lonely yet Are you my friend when I need one I need someone to be one I take anybody I can get And sometimes I wanna call you And I feel like a pet And I'm lonely, but I ain't that lonely yet I go down to the river Filled with regret I go down and I wonder If there was any reason left I left just before my lungs could get wet I'm lonely, but I ain't that lonely yet And I love my sister Lord knows how I've missed her She loves me And she knows I won't forget And sometimes I get jealous Of all her little pets And I get lonely, but I ain't that lonely yet Yeah I get lonely, but I ain't that lonely yet

(Bill rice, mary sharon rice) I don't mind to give you a slow dance or two I'm sorry I'm not at my best I know you can see I'm incredibly blue But I'm not that lonely yet I look in your eyes while you're dancing with me And try to fulfill your request But don't ask for favors when it's time to leave Cause I'm not that lonely yet Now don't say you want me I've heard that before The words weigh like stones in my head There may come a time when I'll think of you more But I'm not that lonely yet It's nice to be dancing To waltzes again And maybe it helps to forget You've opened the door but I'm not waltzing in Cause I'm not that lonely yet No I'm not that lonely yet

Na, na, na Na, na, na Na, na, na Na, na, na Na, na, na Na, na, na It ain't like I don't know what to do 'Cause I've been here a time or two It's what you do when you break up Cut your hair, fix your makeup Put it all in the past with his things in the trash Done with that But I ain't there yet Too soon to forget Got a couple tears left To cry and replay your goodbye in my mind I bet When you're out of my head I'll have no regrets I'll be as good as gone and moving on But I ain't there yet Na, na, na Na, na, na Na, na, na Mmmmm I'll take my time And feel every sting I'm gonna get it all out So I can start over clean So there'll be no reminiscing No late-night call, I miss ya It'll be in the past with your things in the trash Ain't lookin' back But I ain't there yet Too soon to forget Got a couple tears left To cry and replay your goodbye in my mind I bet When you're out of my head I'll have no regrets I'll be as good as gone and moving on But I ain't there yet Look, I'm just trying be honest I'm letting it hurt 'Cause I know one day, someday, I'll be okay But I ain't there yet Too soon to forget Got a couple tears left To cry and replay your goodbye in my mind I bet When you're out of my head I'll have no regrets I'll be as good as gone and moving on But I ain't there yet Too soon to forget Got a couple tears left To cry and replay your goodbye in my mind I bet When you're out of my head I'll have no regrets I'll be as good as gone and moving on But I ain't there yet (na,na,na) No, I ain't there yet Oh, I ain't there yet Oh no, I ain't there yet No, no, no No, I ain't there yet I ain't there yet But I ain't there yet

I couldn't change your heart I couldn't change your mind So I just have to learn to live with This empty life you've left behind You didn't try to hear You didn't try to see No you just stared right through the teardrops Like there was nothing left of me Nothing but sorrow Nothing but pain Nothing but memories that whisper your name, yeah Nothing but sadness Nothing but fear Nothing but silence heard around here Bridges were burned Lessons were learned Promises made that were broken Tender lies so softly spoken (Spoken) You didn't try to hear You didn't try to see You just stared right through the teardrops Like there was nothing left of me Nothing but sorrow (nothing but sorrow) Nothing but pain (nothing) Nothing but memories that whisper your name Nothing but sadness (nothing but sadness) Nothing but fear (nothing) Nothing but silence heard around here Heard around here Nothing but sorrow (nothing but sorrow) Nothing but pain (nothing) Nothing but memories that whisper your name Whisper your name Nothing but sadness (nothing but sadness) Nothing but fear (nothing) Nothing but silence heard around here Heard around here I couldn't change your heart

If I had a waterfall We wouldn't wonder, not at all How much fun each day was gonna be If I had a mountain top I know we would never stop Climbing way high up to look and see If I had a jellyfish I betcha we would never miss A single peanut butter kiss or squeeze If I had a waterfall It might not make no sense at all But that won't matter much to you and me Babies get born Even in a war I guess just to show us What livin's for My heart still Believes that love For what we need Can be enough If we'll just stop Keepin' score If I had a big giraffe That tried to dance and made us laugh Every smile and giggle would be free If I had a big moonlight We'd turn it back on every night Just so the dark could try and get some sleep If I had a rocket ship We'd go places really quick Then have the time to stop and get ice cream If I had a big giraffe He'd have to take a real long bath And that's why waterfalls are really neat Babies get born Even in a war I guess just to show us What livin's for My heart still Believes that love For what we need Can be enough If we'll just stop Keepin' score If I had an everything We could stand out in the rain And only feel the drops we wanted to If I had a wonderful We could play out in the snow And never have to wear our socks and shoes If I had a pot of luck I wouldn't have to spend a buck And get all the stuff we needed for a sneeze If I had an everything We wouldn't get wet in the rain And ridin' waterfalls would be a breeze If I had a big giraffe He'd have to take a real long bath And that's why waterfalls are really neat

If I could I'd take us back To where we were When we didn't need to be Anyplace but deep inside The moment love first came to life and see There's a way lost hope can lead To help find that memory Baby if you just believe A yearning heart can Teach us how Regret is hope We haven't learned to see Even in the total dark I know we can find a spot with dreams The first step back up off the ground Is letting go of what held us down And then just to believe... Words they just get in my way When really all I'm tryin' to say is Believe If I could I'd take us back To when our hearts were both boldly free But words they just get in my way When really all I'm tryin' to say is Believe, believe Believe, believe Believe, yeah words Can just get in the way When all I ever meant to say is Believe!
