Why do I seem to be
Caught up inside a dream?
All my life it's always been my shadow and me
Over my shoulder there's
Always a voice somewhere saying I
Ever should try to set my heart free
I wish that love would come
And take me in her arms
Show me what I've never known
Where I could hold someone
And words like right and wrong
Just fade away like yesterday
Lonely won't leave me alone
Lonely won't leave me alone
Why, tell me why?
Won't even let me fall in love
Oh, everywhere I go
Always by my side
Won't even let me fall in love
I try and say, I love you
But the words won't come through
In my eyes, see all the tears and sad memories
Why can't I start out new
And leave that old feeling too far behind
I guess that lonely needs company
Around each bend of road
I'm thinking back in time
There will be that rainbow's end
But when I follow those
Self illusions I find
That it's only lonely and me again
Lonely won't leave me alone
Lonely won't leave me alone
Why, tell me why?
Lonely just keeps my heart out of touch
Oh, everywhere I go
Always by my side
Won't even let me fall in love
(Lonely won't leave me alone)
I wish that love would come
(Lonely won't leave me alone)
And take me home
(Lonely) lonely won't let me fall in love
(Lonely won't leave me alone)
I wish that love would come
(Lonely won't leave me alone)
And take me home
(Lonely) lonely won't let me fall in love
(Lonely won't leave me alone)
I wish that only
(Lonely won't leave me alone)
Love would come
(Lonely) lonely won't let me fall in love
