Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When the world is ready to fall
On your little shoulders
And when you're feeling lonely and small
You need somebody there to hold you
[Chorus]
You can call out my name
When you're only lonely
Now don't you ever be ashamed
You're only lonely
[Instrumental]
When you need somebody around
On the nights that try you
Remember, I was there when you were a queen
And I'll be the last one there beside you
[Chorus]
So you can call out my name
When you're only lonely
Now don't you ever be ashamed
You're only lonely
[PostChorus]
(You're only lonely)
(You're only lonely)
(You're only lonely)
(Ooh)
[Verse 2]
Ooh, when the world is ready to fall
On your little shoulders
And when you're feeling lonely and small
You need somebody there to hold you
[Chorus]
So don't you ever be ashamed (Hold you)
When you're only lonely
Darling, you can call out my name
When you're only lonely
[Bridge]
(You're only lonely) When you're only lonely
(You're only lonely) Ooh, it's no crime
Darling, we've got lots of time, woah
(You're only lonely) Woah
(You're only lonely) There's nothing wrong with you
Darling, I get lonely, too
(You're only lonely)
(You're only lonely) So if you need me
(You're only lonely) All you got to do is call me
[Outro]
You're only lonely (You're only lonely)
(You're only lonely)
(You're only lonely)
