On a Lonely Night

I was sixteen, met you out in Ohio
You were only fifteen, living life by the mile

We laid under the stars, fell asleep in your backyard
You said you could fly, but you never need to,
Because with us you never tried too hard
And you never will

On a lonely night, you will see, you're everything to me
On a lonely night, oh the truth
Is every night is lonely without you
Every night is lonely without you here

We are older now, and you came back to Ohio
You whispered something to me I haven't heard in a while
I wish I could lie and just tell you I'm fine,
You wouldn't believe me if you tried
If I listen to our song, I'll be up all night

On a lonely night, you will see, you're everything to me
On a lonely night, oh the truth
Is every night is lonely without you
Every night is lonely without you here

It's been forever, but lately it's been hard
Like when we took your parents' car and drove forever in the dark
I'd give it all away if I could see you once again and have a summer love
growing close and never growing up

On a lonely night, you will see, you're everything to me
On a lonely night, oh the truth
Is every night is lonely without you
Every night is lonely without you here

And every guy would be lonely without you there
