Tackling one of the toughest emotions we feel as a person, country superstar Trace Adkins doesn’t hold back when he pours everything he’s got into his newest release, “If Only You Were Lonely”. 

Set to be included on his forthcoming studio album, Something’s Going On, this new honest and raw country track embraces the hardest part of going through a breakup – and he does it in a way nobody else can.

“If Only You Were Lonely” is a song that opens up some deep cuts experienced by the narrator, expressing all the amazing things he could do with his former lover “if only she were lonely”.

Finding out that the person you’ve loved is now with someone else is a painful moment, but Adkins pulls no punches with this heart-wrenching feeling and really travels through the thoughts of looking back on times lost with a perfect match.

“Yeah, if only you were lonely tonight 
I could call you up
Baby you just might
Take one more last chance on me”

The lyrics are a powerful metaphor that channel the loss and frustration into a smooth and soulful song that expresses the longing, missing, and acceptance of a former love moving on. 

This new lyric video is an impressive blending of Adkins’ incredible voice singing – what will surely be a massive hit, alongside truly remarkable visuals that create the perfect pair.
