Coffee Prince - A Home for No One (Official Audio)

Lyrics: I got used to the sound of my own door Closing softly behind me Got used to eating dinner for one And leaving half the bed untouched I stopped checking my phone at midnight Stopped wondering who might call Somewhere between wanting somebody And needing nobody at all I built a little room inside my chest And learned to sleep there in the dark It wasn’t warm, it wasn’t beautiful But at least it never broke my heart Then you came knocking So gently I almost let you in But I had spent so many years alone I didn’t know where loneliness ended And I began I’m a home for no one With the lights left on Waiting for somebody Who I never let come home I dream of being held Then I pull away I spend my nights missing someone I pushed away And every time somebody loves me I don’t know what to do So I turn my heart to winter And watch them walk right through I’m a home for no one And I don’t know how to change You left your sweater on my chair I left it there for weeks It smelled a little like your perfume And everything I couldn’t speak You asked me what I wanted I said, “I don’t really know” The truth was I had wanted you But I was terrified you’d stay Because people become promises And promises become goodbyes So I learned to leave the door half-open And never let anyone inside I wanted your hands around me But I couldn’t stand the weight Of knowing if I let you matter You could someday walk away I’m a home for no one With the lights left on Waiting for somebody Who I never let come home I dream of being held Then I pull away I spend my nights missing someone I pushed away And every time somebody loves me I don’t know what to do So I turn my heart to winter And watch them walk right through I’m a home for no one And I don’t know how to change Maybe I’m lonely Maybe I’m free Maybe they’re the same thing When you’ve been alone this long Years go by like empty hallways Names fade from my phone Every almost-love becomes a ghost That knows the way back home Sometimes I wonder if I loved them Or just loved being wanted Maybe I wanted to be saved But never wanted to be known So I keep a space beside me For someone who isn’t there And every night I turn toward it Like somebody might be waiting What happens when the cage Becomes the only place you know? What happens when the silence Starts to sound like home? What happens when you pray for love Then tremble when it comes? Maybe the cruelest kind of lonely Is having someone And still choosing to be alone [Breakdown] I wanted you… I just didn’t know How to be yours I wanted someone… I just didn’t know How to stop being mine I’m a home for no one Still leaving the lights on Still waiting for somebody Still afraid to let them come home I dream of being held Then I pull away And when they’re gone I miss them every day So I tell myself I’m better off With these four walls and me But every night the silence asks If this is really what I need I’m a home for no one With an empty room inside And every time I lose somebody I swear I’ll let the next one stay But when the next one comes… I hide. And the night gets cold again The bed is wide again The phone is quiet again And somehow I’m lonely again Just like before Just like always Just like I wanted… I think. #lonely #indie #nostalgia #indiepop #indiemusic
