Backstory:
This song is the product of a Facebook video tribute to the late Keith Whitley posted on my Facebook by Lorrie Morgan. I felt the pain of loss and separation and it immediately evoked the line "I'm Lonely for You".
Lyrics:
Lonely for You
Writer: Kevin James Lynch
V1
I’m sittin’ in this bar staring at my phone
Looking at your picture, wondering if you’re comin’ home
When I look through this glass I see shades of blue
‘Cause I’m lonely for you, I’m lonely for you
V2
A girl gives me the eye, but I’m still stuck on you
I’m not in the market for anybody new
I’d rather toast our memories, what else can I do?
‘Cause I’m lonely for you, I’m lonely for you
Bridge:
I could’ve been a little smarter, I could’ve worked a whole lot harder to keep you satisfied
All the things I never thought of, all the ways we got so caught up, Baby, I was blind…
V3
A fella’s showin’ me his pictures of his kids and of his wife
Talkin’ ‘bout his new promotion – He must have a life
I humor him and listen, wishin’ it was you
‘Cause I’m lonely for you, I’m lonely for you
Final Rpt:
And now I’m lonely for you, I’m so lonely for you, I’m so lonely, I’m so lonely, so lonely for you.
Outro: I’m sittin’ in this bar drinkin’ by myself….
