|
Just ask the lonely |
|
When you feel |
|
That you can make it all alone |
|
Remember no one is big enough |
|
To go it all alone |
|
Just ask the lonely |
|
They know the hurting pain |
|
Of losing the love |
|
You can never regain |
|
Just ask the lonely |
|
The young and foolish |
|
Who laugh at love and slowly run away |
|
Confident and sure that fate |
|
Will bring another love their way |
|
But ask the lonely |
|
How vainly a heart can yearn |
|
For losing a love |
|
That will never return |
|
Just ask the lonely |
|
Just ask the lonely |
|
Just ask the lonely |
|
They'll tell you a story of sadness |
|
A story too hard to believe |
|
They'll tell you |
|
The lonliest one is me |
|
Just ask the lonely |
|
Just ask the lonely |
|
Just ask the lonely |
|
Ask me, I'm the lonliest one of all |
