Love Song for No One Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Staying home alone on a Friday
Flat on the floor looking back on old love
Or lack thereof

After all the crushes are faded
And all my wishful thinking was wrong

I'm jaded, I hate it

[Chorus]
I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
So tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here (get here)


[Verse 2]
Searching all my days just to find you
I'm not sure who I'm looking for
I'll know it when I see you
Until then, I'll hide in my bedroom
Staying up all night just to write
A love song for no one

[Chorus]
I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
So tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
[Verse 3]
I could have met you in a sandbox
I could have passed you on the sidewalk
Could I have missed my chance
And watched you walk away


[Verse 3]
I could have met you in a sandbox
I could have passed you on the sidewalk
Could I have missed my chance
And watched you walk away

[Chorus]
I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
So tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here, oh yeah

[Chorus]
I'm tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here
So tired of being alone
So hurry up and get here

[Outro]
You'll be so good
You'll be so good for me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

Love Song for No One is, according to John, “about talking to the person you haven’t even met yet.” The singer is tired of being lonely and wants this person to appear. It’s a great song to remind you that there is someone for you out there, and you have to be ready for that person to come into your life". (Credit to songfacts.com)
