I'm in a lonely way
I'm desperate for love
I sit and cry all day
Cry to the moon above
I need love, I need love, I need love
I'm in a lonely way
This world is not for me
I thought I'd have my day
But it was not to be
Woe is me, woe is me, woe is me
I'm in a lonely way
I wander all night long
Out where the streetlights play
I'm gonna sing this song
All night long, all night long, all night long
I'm in a lonely way
I'm desperate for love
I sit and cry all day
Cry to the moon above
I need love, I need love, I need love
