One of the Lonely Ones

She once hoped to love again

Hard to cope she remembers way back when

A time in her life a man left her lonely

She stops to wonder what it's all about

She needs a lover but still has her doubts

She's on the inside lookin' out

She's one of the lonely ones

Broken heart but she don't let on

She's still lookin' down, don't want to fall

One of the lonely ones,

Wastin' tears as the years roll on

The time passes slow when you're lonely

She stares where she saw him last

Sees his face in a photograph

It's all in her past, can't let it go

It starts her thinkin' how it might've been

They never thought it could ever end

She's on the inside lookin' out

And when she tries to sleep at night

She reminisces when he held her tight

He's no longer there, he's nowhere in sight

There's certain words she should've said

Now she's dreamin' alone in bed

She's on the inside lookin' out

She stops to wonder what it's all about

She needs a lover but still has her doubts

She's on the inside, inside lookin' out

[Chorus]
