"The Things We Do (When We're Lonely)" lyrics

So I took back my keys
Told her goodbye
And I walked out the door
I drove away
So careful not to look back
But I broke down that night
Called up her number
And I counted the rings
No one was there
I hadn't wasted my dime
She hadn't wasted much time

All the things we do when we're lonely
Don't seem like much
In the light of the day
All the things we do when we're lonely
Proves how little we all know
Because they can't make the hurt go away

I pretended not to care
Going through the motions
Living alone
Friends come around
Tell me that I'll be all right
I'll be all right
But I still speak her name
Hopin' that she'll hear me
But knowin' she won't
If she should call
I'd run right back to her side
I ain't got time for pride

All the things we do when we're lonely
Don't seem like much
In the light of the day
All the things we do when we're lonely
Proves how little we all know
Because they can't make the hurt go away

If she should call
I'd run right back to her side
To hell with my pride

All the things we do when we're lonely
Don't seem like much
In the light of the day
All the things we do when we're lonely
Proves how little we all know
Because they can't make the hurt go away

All the things we do when we're lonely
Don't seem like much
In the light of the day
All the things we do when we're lonely...
