Lyrics
Lonely Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It happened once before
It could happen again
Do you spend your life
Not trying anything
It's turning you into
What you don't want to be
A lonely man
You hide yourself away
You hide inside your head
Don't you know that life
Is never what you plan
I know what you've been through
But no-one wants to see
A lonely man
You'll be, a lonely man
There's nothing wrong with you
That can't be fixed right here
You only have to want to
Nothing anyone can say
To make you less scared
But you know the truth
That you gotta do
What you gotta do
To make it through
So open up your eyes
Please don't close your heart
You can restart the fire
All you need's the spark
After all you've been through
You still don't need to be
A lonely man
Don't be the lonely, (lonely man)
Don't be a lonely, (lonely man)
Don't be a lonely man, (lonely man)
Yeah you know the truth that you gotta do
What you gotta do
You'll make it through
