sung by Nancy Howell
lyrics
I'd been so alone in my life
Lonely in love
Being loved by or loving the wrong one
Then you came into the midst of my life
How far from the loneliness we'd only begun
I'm twice as lonely as I used to be
I get lonely for you, you get lonely for me
I'm twice as lonely as I was before
When you're in the next room or behind your door
'Cause you're a part of me I never leave
When you're apart from me I can't believe I'm living
You are my only love,
Must we be lonely, love?
Lonely love, lonely love, lonely love.
[repeat]
Twice as lonely now when you're away from me
Half as happy, in love times infinity
You are my only love,
Must we be lonely, love?
Lonely love, lonely love, lonely love.
[repeat]
Some people say loving this way is blind
You go out of my sight, I go out of my mind
My confidence crumbles, my fear multiplies
When I yawn and can't hear you, when I blink my eyes.
You are my only love,
Must we be lonely, love?
Lonely love, lonely love, lonely love.
[repeat]
Twice as lonely now, as I was once before
Twice as lonely now, and coming back for more
You are my only love,
Must we be lonely, love?
Lonely love, lonely love, lonely love.
[repeat]
Lonely in love
Being loved by or loving the wrong one
Then you came into the midst of my life
How far from the loneliness we'd only begun
I'm twice as lonely as I used to be
I get lonely for you, you get lonely for me
I'm twice as lonely as I was before
When you're in the next room or behind your door
'Cause you're a part of me I never leave
When you're apart from me I can't believe I'm living
You are my only love,
Must we be lonely, love?
Lonely love, lonely love, lonely love.
[repeat]
Twice as lonely now when you're away from me
Half as happy, in love times infinity
You are my only love,
Must we be lonely, love?
Lonely love, lonely love, lonely love.
[repeat]
Some people say loving this way is blind
You go out of my sight, I go out of my mind
My confidence crumbles, my fear multiplies
When I yawn and can't hear you, when I blink my eyes.
You are my only love,
Must we be lonely, love?
Lonely love, lonely love, lonely love.
[repeat]
Twice as lonely now, as I was once before
Twice as lonely now, and coming back for more
You are my only love,
Must we be lonely, love?
Lonely love, lonely love, lonely love.
[repeat]
