When the light shines down on you, 

but all you see is the candle light.

When the city is always there for you, 

but you don’t feel it tonight.

 

As lonely as a heart can be,

with so many beating around.

All you want is someone to drink with, 

So you can drown the silence out.

 

When your only friend is the liquor, 

and your six stringer pal.

Always at your hand when you need them to be,

even in the darkest of sounds.

​

As lonely as a heart can be,

with so many beating around.

All you want is someone to drink with, 

So you can drown the silence out.

​

(Bridge)

 

As lonely as a heart can be,

with so many beating around.

All you want is someone to drink with, 

so you can drown the silence out.

So you can drown the silence out.

So you can drown the silence out.
