Once You've Learned to Be Lonely Lyrics

Reba McEntire

You're asking me to open up I'm tryin' my best to give enough to keep this love alive It wouldn't be so hard for me to do If it hadn't have been for all my heart's been through
But once you've learned to be lonely And lonely is the only thing you've known It begins to feel like home, it becomes your comfort zone And once you've learned to be without someone And settle for the silence of an empty room oh, it changes you There's a lot you have to undo once you've learned to be lonely
It becomes a habit of the heart To be afraid to even start to try and love again I want to give you myself to you But I've been alone so long that I'm scared, scared to move
Once you've learned to be lonely And lonely is the only thing you've known It begins to feel like home, it becomes your comfort zone And once you've learned to be without someone And settle for the silence of an empty room oh, it changes you There's a lot you have to undo once you've learned to be lonely
I've built walls but I feel them falling down Touch by touch your love is my way out
But once you've learned to be lonely And lonely is the only thing you've known It begins to feel like home, it becomes your comfort zone Once you've learned to be without someone And settle for the silence of an empty room oh, it changes you There's a lot you have to undo once you've learned to be lonely There's a lot you have to undo once you've learned to be lonely
