Lyrics Rather Be Lonely - Nate Smith

Slammin' doors, pedals floored, nothin' but taillight red
On repeat, losing sleep every night in this bed
Now you're a couple drinks in, two in the a.m. sayin' we should patch things up
Forget about the leavin', kiss and call it even
I know what you're thinkin', but

I'd rather be lonely (oh, oh-oh)
Sittin' at the end of an empty bar
Both hands on a cold drink, yeah (oh, oh-oh)
Lettin' that jukebox break my heart
Yeah baby, just me, myself and Jack
Ain't that hard not wantin' you back
Even if you were the only (oh, oh-oh)
I'd rather be, I'd rather be, I'd rather be lonely

Wakin' up, still half-drunk, forever all by myself
Go through life, livin' just like I'll never find someone else
Love ain't a light switch, can't turn it off
Then try and turn it right back on
Baby, a goodbye is only good one time
Even if the love ain't gone

I'd rather be lonely (oh, oh-oh)
Sittin' at the end of an empty bar
Both hands on a cold drink, yeah (oh, oh-oh)
Lettin' that jukebox break my heart
Yeah baby, just me, myself and Jack
Ain't that hard not wantin' you back
Even if you were the only (oh, oh-oh)
I'd rather be, I'd rather be, I'd rather be lonely

(I'd rather be, I'd rather be lonely)

Ooh, how you gonna leave like that?
Ooh, callin' me up, tryna take it all back
Now you're a couple drinks in, two in the a.m. sayin' we should patch things up
Forget about the leavin', kiss and call it even
I know what you're thinkin', but

I'd rather be lonely (oh, oh-oh)
Sittin' at the end of an empty bar
Both hands on a cold drink, yeah (oh, oh-oh)
Lettin' that jukebox break my heart
Yeah baby, just me, myself and Jack
Ain't that hard not wantin' you back
Even if you were the only (oh, oh-oh) (even if you were the only)
I'd rather be, I'd rather be, I'd rather be lonely (oh, oh-oh)
I'd rather be, I'd rather be lonely
I'd rather be

Yeah baby, just me, myself and Jack
Ain't that hard not wantin' you back
Even if you were the only (oh, oh-oh) (even if you were the only)
I'd rather be, I'd rather be, I'd rather be lonely
