(Not) Lonesome Tonight

from Crooked Earth by Ben Smith

/

lyrics

I used to stare at every empty room and empty chair
I used to stand out on the doorstep just to be with the air
I'd concede every evening to somebody else
Got used to me just as myself

but now I'm not lonesome tonight
I'm not lonesome tonight
I'm not lonesome tonight
cause I got you

I used to drive around all night with the radio off
I used to threaten Armageddon with my every thought
I'd pull off of the road and light a signal flare
Thought I was lost, thought the devil may care

I used to walk into the woods when you weren't around
I used to see the trees fall but not make a sound
