I Refuse To Be Lonely Lyrics - Phyllis Hyman

I can't hold you like I want to 

Can't hold you to the promises you make 

You won't be here tonight or any other night 

It would be a lie to say I'm not afraid 

But to be afraid is something that I've always been 

The difference is this time I'm not giving in 

Yes, I am alone, yes, I'm on my own 

But for the first time in my life 

I'm gonna carry on, yes, I'm gonna ache

But I will not break, some things I can choose 

And baby I refuse to be lonely to be lonely 

I can't change you, I can't blame you 

And this time, I'm not even gonna try 

You do what you have to do 

I'll do the same thing too 

You've got a right to say good-bye 

But I've got a right to take care of myself 

I realize that I come first before anyone else 

Yes, I am alone, yes, I'm on my own 

But for the time in my life 

I'm gonna carry on, yes, I'm gonna ache 

But I will not break, some things I can choose 

And baby, I refuse to be lonely 

Lonely is a place I used to be 

But I'm closing that door, I won't live there anymore 

Yes, I am alone, yes, I'm on my own 

But for the first time in my life 

I'm gonna carry on, yes, I'm gonna ache 

But I will not break, some things I can choose 

And baby, I refuse to be lonely 

To be lonely, to be lonely
