When you're standing on the edge of nowhere There's only one way up So your heart's got to go there Through the darkest nights See the light shine bright When heroes fall, in love or war They live forever This is a song for the lonely Can you hear me tonight For the broken hearted, battle scarred I'll be on your side And this is a song for the lonely When your dreams won't come true Can you hear this prayer 'Cause someone's there for you Well don't need a reason She can pick you up Or leave you bleeding I've seen a strong man cry I know the reason why We all forgive, we all forget We just keep believing This is a song for the lonely Can you hear me tonight For the broken hearted, battle scarred I'll be on your side And this is a song for the lonely When your dreams won't come true Can you hear this prayer 'Cause someone's there for you So let it find you Wherever you go I'm right beside you You don't have to look no more You don't have to look no more, oh no This is a song for the lonely Can you hear me tonight For the broken hearted, battle scarred I'll be on your side And this is a song for the lonely When your dreams won't come true Can you hear this prayer 'Cause someone's there for you It's gonna be alright It's gonna be alright It's gonna be alright This is a song A song for the lonely And that's not you only Through the darkest night You're gonna see the light Love don't need a reason Just to leave you bleeding Can you hear this prayer Someone's there This is a song for the lonely Can you hear me tonight For the broken hearted, battle scarred I'll be by your side And this is a song For the lonely
