Lonelier Than This

It doesn't get any lonelier than this 
I believe my heart'll break 
Tonight I prayed I'd die before I wake 
With every breath I'm tastin' your kiss 
And it's sweet upon my tongue 
Until the bitter tears fall one by one 

It doesn't get any lonelier than this 
'Cause I'm on this road alone 
My heartbeat ringin' like a hollow drum 
I'm about as lonesome as a poor boy gets 
And there's nothin' I can do 
'Cause it's dark out here and I can't find you 
It doesn't get any lonelier than this 

It doesn't get any lonelier than this 
I'm as blue as blue can be 
Just an empty place where your love should be 
I'm sick and tired of walkin' around like this 
With my heart outside my skin 
Scared to death we'll never touch again 
It doesn't get any lonelier than this 
And there's no place I can go 
Just the dusty corners that the shadows know 
Maybe this is as good as it's gonna get 
And I'll always be this way 
I'll just wander this world callin' out your name 
It doesn't get any lonelier than this
