Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Child of the wilderness
Born into emptiness
Learn to be lonely
Learn to find your way in darkness
Who will be there for you?
Comfort and care for you?
Learn to be lonely
Learn to be your one companion
[Verse 2]
Never dreamed out in the world
There are arms to hold you
You've always known
Your heart was on it's own
[Verse 3]
So laugh in your loneliness
Child of the wilderness
Learn to be lonely
Learn how to love life that is lived alone
[Verse 4]
Learn to be lonely
Life can be lived, life can be loved
Alone
Written by: Andrew Lloyd Webber, Charles Hart
