Ooh, Darling, what can I do?
I feel so afraid, and even my friends don't know what to say
That's why I'm asking you
I'm so afraid
I know I should be strong
But when affection is gone, it's hard to face each day
Knowing love has drifted away
Somehow I can't hide the pain
Is he gonna come back again?
Dear Lonely Heart
I wish things could be the way that they were at the start
But you must face the fact
If he's going to leave there's no way that you'll win him back
You gotta try to hold back the tears
Don't give into your fears
Darling, I'm so afraid
I can get through the night
But when affection is gone, it's hard to face each day
Oh will he please come home
Dear Lonely Heart, dear Lonely Heart
Dear Lonely Heart
I wish things could be the way that they were at the start
But you must face the fact
If he's going to leave there's no way that you'll win him back
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Dear Lonely Heart, dear Lonely Heart
Dear Lonely Heart
Darling, I'm so afraid
I can get through the night
But I can't face the day knowing you are far away
Oh will you please come home
