Once You've Learned To Be Lonely Lyrics - Room To Breathe - Reba Mcentire

You're asking me to open up 

I'm trying my best to give enough 

To keep this love alive 

It wouldn't be so hard for me to do 

If it hadn't have been for all my heart's been through 

CHORUS: 

But once you've learned to be lonely 

And lonely is the only thing you've known 

It begins to feel like home 

It becomes your comfort zone 

Once you've learned to be without someone 

And settle for the silence of an empty room 

Oh, it changes you 

There's a lot you have to undo 

Once you've learned to be lonely

It becomes a habit of the heart 

To be afraid and even start 

To try and love again 

I want to give myself to you 

But I've been alone so long that I'm scared, scared to move 

CHORUS: 

But once you've learned to be lonely 

And lonely is the only thing you've known 

It begins to feel like home 

It becomes your comfort zone 

Once you've learned to be without someone 

And settle for the silence of an empty room 

Oh, it changes you 

There's a lot you have to undo 

Once you've learned to be lonely 

I've built these walls, but I feel them falling down 

Touch by touch your love is my way out
