Let me ask you a question
Will you lend me your ear
Do you know the meaning of emptiness
If not I'll make it clear
Alone, alone
Nobody knows how lonely it can be
And I'm so tired of being alone.

Let me tell you a story
One you've probably heard
One about the man who was lost
And I can tell you in one word
Alone, alone
Nobody knows how lonely it can be
And he was tired of being alone
Alone, alone
Nobody knows how lonely it can be
And I'm so tired of being alone.

There's an end to the fable
Where does all of this lead
That for everyone who needs someone
There is someone there to need
Alone, alone
Someone is still alone
Alone, alone
Someone is still alone.
