Lonely woman
Lonely woman
Craving love and slaving to forget
A life of torcher this is
To yearn for someone's kisses
With lips you've wasted
Untasted yet

Lonely woman
Only woman
Understands the pain I've clearly shown
What trick can fait have done me
That men must spurn and shun me
My only crime is I'm alone

As I cross the street the men that I meet
Have eyes of fun for everyone but me
In my room I pass
The looking glass
And see the blue of girlhood waiting
Killed by all my hearts complaining

Lonely, lonely woman
So lonely woman
As I sleep I weep in misery
Oh stars that shine above me
Please send someone to love me
And take my loneliness from me

Lonely, lonely woman
