Only A Lonely Heart Knows
Barbara Mandrell Lyrics

Life holds no fascination
My life has lost its charm and appeal without you by my side.

Without you here with me
Your absence has left me feeling incomplete and empty inside.

Each hour's eternity
Time drags on endlessly, and each moment without you feels like an eternity.

And friends are small consolation
Although my friends mean well, their comfort and support cannot replace the love and companionship I shared with you.

Talk doesn't ease the pain
Words cannot soothe the heartache and emotional pain that I'm experiencing.

The hurt can't be explained
The depth of my pain is beyond words and explanation, and only I can truly comprehend its intensity.

Only a lonely heart knows
Only someone who has experienced this kind of deep heartache and loneliness can truly understand what I'm going through.

How the memory cuts like a knife
The memories of our love and happiness together are so painful and sharp that they hurt as much as a physical wound.

Since you walked out of my life
Ever since you left me, my life has been in shambles, and I cannot escape the constant agony and sadness.

I'm half crazy day and night
This emotional turmoil has driven me to the brink of insanity, and I cannot escape its grips even in my sleep.

How the heartache, it grows and grows
My pain and grief only continue to escalate and intensify over time, and there seems to be no end to it.

Oh, how long does it take till the heartache goes?
I'm desperate to know when or if this pain will ever subside and if I will ever find happiness again.

Time is a friend and an enemy
Although time may eventually heal my heartache, in the present, it feels like both a friend and a foe, bringing me closer to healing but also prolonging my agony.

In time the hurt might end
I must hold onto the hope that with time, this pain will eventually fade, and I will be able to move on.

Till then the walls close in
Until then, the weight of my grief and loneliness will continue to suffocate me, and I will feel trapped in my despair.

I'm so lost, I'm numbed by your leaving me
I feel completely adrift and lost since you left me, and the shock and pain of your departure have left me feeling numb and empty.

I sit alone and stare
I spend my days lost in my thoughts and memories, trying to make sense of how everything fell apart.

You don't know till you've been there
I don't expect anyone else to truly understand my pain and heartache unless they have experienced it themselves.

Tell me how long does it take till the heartache goes?
I'm still searching for answers and a way to ease my pain. The uncertainty and unknowing make it difficult to move forward.
