Lonely lyrics

Feeling so alone and deserted

With people standing all around you

Should I trust someone

Should I stay off to myself

Alone with no one to talk to

It's such a helpless feeling

So anytime you feel the need

Call me when you're lonely

Cause everybody needs a friend

To be there when they're lonely

So don't isolate yourself

Every time that I come around

A person all alone

Is an unhappy one

We need somebody near to love us

Someone who cares

Living life all by yourselves

Impossible to do and I'll be there for you

Anytime you feel the need

Call me when you're lonely

Cause everybody needs a friend

And I'll be yours if you're lonely

(And if you're all alone)

If you're all alone

And a friend you need

Like a river flows

You hurt, I'll bleed

If you can trust in me

We can find a way

Take away the pain

Time heals all things

Even a lonely state of mind

Cause happiness is oh so hard to find

If you're lonely I will be there

So anytime you feel the need

Call me when you're lonely

Cause everybody needs a friend

To be there when they're lonely
