Story Behind The Song
I wrote this song after losing someone who was very close to me. I spent a lot of time soul searching. It wasn't about a relationship gone bad. It was written after my father passed. I had such a sense of loss and loneliness and this song came out of that emotion.

Lyrics
Lonely Out Here written by Keith Taylor and Bruce Taylor
I'm getting pretty tired of holding on
But the feeling that you're gone won't disappear
I've got to learn to get on with my life
It's going to take a while and it's lonely out here
I try to see a smile when I look in the mirror
I never do and it's lonely out here
I used to think that things were going just fine
The reasons that you left still aren't clear
But I've got lots of time to think about
What went wrong, it's so lonely out here
I try to see some hope when I look in the mirror
I never do and it's lonely out here
I never saw it coming
Now its my worst fear
I can't even tell you
All I'm feeling out here
I'm getting pretty tired of holding on
I'd turn my life around if I could steer
And I've got lots of time to think about
What went wrong, it's so lonely out here
I try to see my life when I look in the mirror
I never do and it's lonely out here
