(Jon Randall, Gary Nicholson)

They say the only cure for losing a woman

Is another woman
But I'm not so sure that's true
Anyone could look in these eyes and know

I got a long way to go
Before I am over you
The only thing that's gonna help

Is a little time to myself

(CHORUS)

I just need to be lonely for awhile
Take the time to dig down deep and find an honest smile
I don't want to try to pretend

I'm ready to love again
I just need to be lonely for awhile
I just need to be lonely for awhile


Friends keep settin' me up with friends
But another friend

Ain't what I need right now
I need to start looking back inside
Try to find the pride

I lost when you walked out
I gotta learn to love myself
Before I can love anyone else


(REPEAT CHORUS)


I just need a little time to cry
And find a way to say goodbye
I just need to be lonely for awhile

I just need to be lonely for awhile
