Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So why can't we be lonely together?
The night is young and while it grows older
We can't forget crying on each other's shoulder.
The sky's cloudy 'cause we're lonely,
But soon we'll see a change in the weather,
Two lonely hearts beating as one,
Can be miserable and still have a lot of fun.

You're lonely and I'm lonely,
Both of us are feeling lonely.
So why can't we be lonely together?
Why don't we try to alleviate our loneliness by being together?

We have been there for each other in the past when we needed emotional support.
The sky's cloudy 'cause we're lonely,
