Lonely Holiday

(album: Basic Man - 2016)

Another bad night
You know the feeling just a little too well
Stuck at a red light
Your heart is beating but your body stays still

It beats so loud
Made a promise that you wouldn't let the wrong one in
But you did

You give in to your body but the pleasure leaves you numb
You wanna touch somebody, but it's never enough
Don't do it for the money, do it, do it for the fun
And if it don't hurt you, girl, it ain't love
You give in to your body but the pleasure leaves you numb
You wanna touch somebody, but it's never enough
I know you came to party, so go on and get you some
And if it don't hurt you, it ain't love

You've been up all night
You feel the fever creeping under your skin
And in the morning light
I see the shadows running down to your chin

You feel so lost
Just another heartbreak, it's so unfair
The truth is

You give in to your body but the pleasure leaves you numb
You wanna touch somebody, but it's never enough
Don't do it for the money, do it, do it for the fun
And if it don't hurt you, girl, it ain't love
You give in to your body but the pleasure leaves you numb
You wanna touch somebody, but it's never enough
I know you came to party, so go on and get you some
And if it don't hurt you, it ain't love

If it don't hurt you, it ain't love

Until you throw it all away
Then you'll be the last to know
Anyone can see, it's just an attitude
It's such a lonely holiday
When you're dancing on your own
You're holding what could be
But nothing's holding you

You give in to your body but the pleasure leaves you numb
You wanna touch somebody, but it's never enough
Don't do it for the money, do it, do it for the fun
And if it don't hurt you, girl, it ain't love
You give in to your body but the pleasure leaves you numb
You wanna touch somebody, but it's never enough
I know you came to party, so go on and get you some
And if it don't hurt you, it ain't love

If it don't hurt you, it ain't love
If it don't hurt you, it ain't love
If it don't hurt you, it ain't love
