Lonely Together

"**Lonely Together**" is a song performed by Gigi Rowe. Initially intended as the fourth single of Gigi's third studio album **"Laura"**. It was accidentally released as the third single on June 29, 2022 before being re-released on July 29, 2022 as intended.

## Background

On May 5, 2022, Gigi shared a snippet of the track on her Instagram account.. On June 22, 2022, the release date of the track was leaked by some sities as June 29, 2022. The song was released that day without any promo or acknowledge.

On July 27, Gigi announced the "future" release of the song, meaning that the original release was likely accidentally. The song had a premiere on July 28 on She Makes Music. On a Instagram post about the premiere, she stated:

"*It was a magical late-night studio session when we wrote and recorded this song. I’ll never forget the way I felt singing this one, and the delirious adrenaline high listening to this record in the early morning hours when the the sun was just starting to come up over the farm.*"

On the proper premiere post from She Makes Music. She mentioned:

"*My producer PJ Bianco and I envisioned ourselves in vintage Las Vegas, in a bygone era watching Elvis take the stage in a smoky lounge and languidly croon to a late-night crowd[...] We channeled this vibe into ‘Lonely Together.’ Time ticked by, and it was the middle of the night before the song was finally written. I sat on the floor, curled up with a handheld mic, and sang one of my favorite performances to date*"
## Lyrics

**[Verse 1]**

In your face I see the pain

I need to know if something's happening

In your face I see the hurt, the pride

The lies inside

**[Pre-Chorus]**

I couldn't lie to you

And told you everything is gonna be good

I could hold you

And drift to another world

**[Chorus]**

[?]

Paradise

Running with wolves

Hold me close

Love me forever

You and me lonely together

**[Verse 2]**

In your eyes I see

The stars, sky, longing for paradise

In your eyes I see

The movie and a dream

**[Pre-Chorus]**

I couldn't lie to you

And told you everything is gonna be good

I could hold you

And drift to another world

**[Chorus]**

[?]

Paradise

Running with wolves

Take my hand

Love me forever

We can be lonely together

We can be lonely together

We can be lonely together

We can be lonely together

**[Outro]**

Lonely together

Lonely together

## Trivia

* It is very likely that the song was intended first to be released on June 22, 2022 along with "*Borrowed Time*" and/or "*You Me and the Stars*".
	+ Some sities mentioned June 22 as the release date of the track instead of June or July 29.
	+ The thumbnail for the IndieWavves promo video of "*Borrowed Time*" uses the picture from the cover art of **Lonely Together**.
	+ The day the song was announced to be released, an additional release of the song popped up on streaming, showing June 22 as the release date. It was later removed and replaced with the July 29 one.
* "**Lonely Together**" and "*Running from the Grave*" are the only songs by Gigi to have been re-released.
