When you're standin' on the edge of nowhere There's only one way up So your heart's gotta go there Through the darkest night See the light shine bright When heroes fall in love or war They live forever This is a song for the lonely Can you hear me tonight? For the broken hearted, battle scarred I'll be by your side And this is a song for the lonely When your dreams won't come true Can you hear this prayer? Someone's there for you Love don't need a reason She can pick you up Or leave you bleedin' I've seen a strong man cry I know the reason why We all forgive, we all forget We just keep believin' 'Coz this is a song for the lonely Can you hear me tonight? For the broken hearted, battle scarred I'll be by your side And this is a song for the lonely When your dreams won't come true Can you hear this prayer? 'Coz someone's there for you (Don't give up)So let it find you (Just for her)Wherever you may go (You'll be there)I'm right beside you You don't have to look no more You don't have to look no more Oh no 'Coz this is a song for the lonely Can you hear me tonight?(Can you hear me tonight?) For the broken hearted, battle scarred I'll be by your side And this is a song for the lonely When your dreams won't come true(When your dreams won't come true) Can you hear this prayer? 'Coz there's someone there for you It's gonna be alright It's gonna be alright It's gonna be alright This is a song(For the lonely) A song for the lonely(Can you hear me tonight?) that's not you only(This is a song for the lonely) Through the darkest night(Can you hear me tonight?)
