I used to be quite happy
Just letting my love drift by
It's not until you're in love
That you know you're going to die
Even at its happiest
There is a sadness to love
Knowing one of you will go
Before the other one does
Life can be lonely
Sometimes you'll be lonely, too
You think it's only you who feels lonely like you
But so many people I know are scared of being on their own
You're never gonna be lonely alone
Love is a solitary thing
All that anyone can do
Is feel around in the dark
And hope that they catch hold of you
I don't want to be alone
With all the thoughts in my head
Just watching the world go round
In a self-service laundrette
Life can be lonely
Sometimes you'll be lonely, too
You think it's only you who feels lonely like you
But so many people I know are scared of being on their own
You're never gonna be lonely alone
It's funny how small life can be
When you're in love with somebody
And nothing that anyone does
Can ever take the place of love
Life can be lonely
Sometimes you'll be lonely, too
You think it's only you who feels lonely like you
But so many people I know are scared of being on their own
You're never gonna be lonely alone
