Lyrics Barbara Mandrell

Barbara Mandrell

Only A Lonely Heart Knows

Life holds no fascination

Without you here with me

Each hour's eternity

And friends are small consolation

Talk doesn't ease the pain

The hurt can't be explained

Only a lonely heart knows

How the memory cuts like a knife

Since you walked out of my life

I'm half crazy day and night

And only a lonely heart knows

How the heartache, it grows and grows

Oh, how long does it take till the heartache goes?

Only a lonely, only a lonely heart knows

Time is a friend and an enemy

In time the hurt might end

Till then the walls close in

I'm so lost, I'm numbed by your leaving me

I sit alone and stare

You don't know till you've been there

And only a lonely heart knows

How the memory cuts like a knife

Since you walked out of my life

I'm half crazy day and night

And only a lonely heart knows

How the heartache, it grows and grows

Oh, how long does it take till the heartache goes?

Only a lonely, only a lonely heart knows

Tell me how long does it take till the heartache goes?

Only a lonely, only a lonely

Yes, only a lonely, only a lonely heart knows
