Lonely
IsaiahThe3rd feat. Soul Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The ear of the doctor's not much of a friend
The doctor's on location missing his kids
And wondering where she went to live
Spend time alone and look after your life
Remember your loved ones your boyfriends your wives
And if you are lonely and she's lonely too
And she will stay lonely for you
Come what may, come what may
And she will stay lonely for you
Patiently waiting for taxies to come
To take you away from all you have become
The driver tells stories like he's your best friend
And you hope the ride never ends
To all of the ones who have got no one else
Who keep their own time and look after themselves
Someday you'll meet someone lonely as you
And he will stay lonely for you
Yes he will stay lonely for you
Come what may, come what may
and I will stay lonely for you
I will stay lonely for you
The song Lonely by IsaiahThe3rd feat. Soul is a somber and reflective track about the loneliness that comes with life. The lyrics paint a picture of a woman who is pregnant and alone, seeking comfort from a doctor who is also struggling with loneliness. The doctor is missing his own kids, while the woman is left to wait for taxis to take her away from her situation. The song encourages listeners to remember their loved ones, but also acknowledges that sometimes, even when surrounded by people, one can still feel alone.
The line "Barefoot and pregnant she tries not to bend, The ear of the doctor's not much of a friend" is a sobering reflection on the isolation that can come with pregnancy, especially if the woman is alone. The doctor, who would normally be a source of comfort and support, is struggling with his own loneliness, unable to provide the emotional support the woman may need. The lines "Someday you'll meet someone lonely as you, And he will stay lonely for you" offer a glimmer of hope in the face of loneliness. The song seems to suggest that while it's important to remember loved ones, it's also important to acknowledge and appreciate those who are alone, as they may be searching for the same comfort and companionship.
