Each place I go only the lonely
go
Some little small caf‚
The songs I know only the lonely
know
Each melody recalls a love that
used to be
The dreams I dream only the
lonely dream
Of lips as warm as May
That hopeless scheme only the
lonely scheme
That soon somewhere you'll find
the one that used to care
And you'll recall each fun time
Those picnics at the beach when
love was new
It well could be the one time
A hopeless little dream like
that comes true
If you find love hang on to each
caress
And never let love go
For when it's gone you'll know
the loneliness
The heartbreak only the lonely
know
