Connection - OneRepublic

These days my waves get lost in the oceans

Seven billion swimmers, man I'm going through the motions

Sent up a flare, I need love and devotion

Traded for some faces that I never know, notion

Maybe I should try to find the old me

Take me to the places and the people that know me

Tryin' to disconnect, thinking maybe you could show me

If there's so many people here, then why am I so lonely?

Can I get a connection?

Can I get, can I get a connection?

Can I get a connection?

Can I get, can I get a connection?

Real friends, good friends – hard to find, let's face it

Find the perfect tone and there's a flood in the basement

Made a couple dollars now and I ain't tryin' to chase it

Kids from Oklahoma, man we don't waste it

I'm just tryin' to paint the picture for me

Something I could give a damn about at maybe 40

Years and I be ready and willing and able to edit the story

Cause there's so many people here to be so damn lonely

Can I get a connection?

Can I get, can I get a connection?

Can I get a connection?

Can I get, can I get a connection?

I can see it in my, see it in my reflection

Oh, can I get a connection?

Can I get, can I get a connection?

Lonely

Right now, right now, I'm switching to a new lane

Foot to the floor, man searching for the real thing

Meet somebody else, sometimes ain't no shame

Head to the clouds sayin'

It's like can I get a connection?

Can I get, can I get a connection?

Can I get a connection?

Can I get, can I get a connection?

I can see it in my, see it in my reflection

Oh, can I get a connection?

Can I get, can I get a connection?

Try'na find the old me

Lonely
