Only the Lonely Know

You say you're leaving, it's goodbye

Your love has deceived me, don't know why

What did I do wrong, what did I say?

Baby baby

Darling I'm sorry, don't leave me this way

Only the lonely know

How love can hurt you so

What a sad way to go

Your love's been drifting, is it another guy?

Can he love you better, even better than I?

We've been together much too long, baby baby yeah

Please hold on baby, let's keep our love strong

Only the lonely know

How love can hurt you so

What a sad way to go

'Cause you know I've tried so very hard to bring you happiness

With each passing day, I've loved you in a different way

Your love was my success, so

If you won't reconsider giving it another try

Then walk away baby, leave me here alone to cry

Only the lonely know

How love can hurt you, and hurt you, and hurt you so

What a sad way to go

Sad way to go

Sad way to go

Sad way to go

Sad way to go
