Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
I wish that love would come and take me in her arms
And show me what I've never known
Where I could hold someone and words like right and wrong
Just fade away like yesterday
[Verse 3]
Lonely won't leave me alone
Lonely won't leave me alone
Why, tell me why?
Won't even let me fall in love
[Verse 4]
Oh, everywhere I go
Always by my side
Won't even let me fall in love
[Verse 5]
I try and say I love you
But the words won't come through
When my eyes see all the tears and sad memories
[Verse 6]
Why can't I start out new
And leave that old feeling too far behind
I guess that lonely need company
[Verse 7]
Around each bend of road
I'm thinking back in time
There will be that rainbow's end
[Verse 8]
But when I follow love
Self delusions I find
That it's only lonely and me again
[Verse 9]
Lonely won't leave me alone
Lonely won't leave me alone
Why, tell me why?
Lonely just keeps my heart out of touch
[Verse 10]
Oh, everywhere I go
Always by my side
Won't even let me fall in love
[Verse 11]
(Lonely won't leave me alone)
I wish that love would come
(Lonely won't leave me alone)
And take me home
(Won't leave)
Lonely won't let me fall in love
[Verse 12]
(Lonely won't leave me alone)
I wish that love would come
(Lonely won't leave me alone)
And take me home
(Won't leave)
Lonely won't let me fall in love
[Verse 13]
(Lonely won't leave me alone)
I wish that only
(Lonely won't leave me alone)
Love would come
(Won't leave)
Lonely won't let me fall in love
