If You Think You’re Lonely Now | Soulful Southern Soul Ballad | Soulful Past After Dark

Описание: “If You Think You’re Lonely Now” is a deep, late-night soul ballad about the quiet regret that comes after walking away from real love. The song tells the story of someone who chose freedom over commitment, only to discover that loneliness hits harder when love is truly gone.

This is grown-folks soul — honest, reflective, and timeless. A reminder that being alone isn’t just about empty rooms… it’s about missing the warmth you once took for granted.

LYRICS:

You said you needed space to breathe
Said my love was holding’ you down
You packed your pride with your suitcase
Left my heart sitting’ in this house
Now the phone don’t ring like it used to
Silence talking’ loud at night
Funny how freedom feels empty
When nobody’s there to hold you tight

I tried to tell you love ain’t easy
It don’t come with guarantees
You don’t miss the sunshine
Till the warmth is gone away

If you think you’re lonely now
Just wait till love stops calling’ your name
If you think the nights are long now
Wait till nobody remembers your pain
You thought leaving’ would save you somehow
But baby, this is only the start
If you think you’re lonely now
Just wait till you feel it in your heart

I was there when the world was heavy
When your smile couldn’t fight the blues
I held you down when you were shaky
When nobody else would choose you
Now you’re out there chasing’ shadows
Trying’ to replace what was real
But strangers don’t love you like I did
They don’t care how you feel

Grass ain’t greener on the other side
It’s just painted from far away
Now every tear you cry in private
Is every word I tried to say

If you think you’re lonely now
Just wait till love stops calling’ your name
If you think the nights are long now
Wait till nobody remembers your pain
You thought leaving’ would save you somehow
But baby, this is only the start
If you think you’re lonely now
Just wait till you feel it in your heart

Ain’t no music in a quiet room
Ain’t no comfort in empty sheets
Pride don’t keep you warm at midnight
When regret won’t let you sleep

One day you’ll hear our old song playing’
On some late-night radio
And every word gon’ hit you different
Cause now you finally know

If you think you’re lonely now
Just wait till love won’t answer back
If you think you’re hurting now
Wait till you want what you had
You walked away from something sacred
Now you’re out here in the dark
If you think you’re lonely now
Just wait till you feel it in your heart

Lonely ain’t just being alone
Lonely’s knowing’ I'm forever gone
