Each place I go only the lonely go Some little small cafe The songs I know only the lonely know Each melody recalls a love that used to be The dreams I dream only the lonely dream Of lips as warm as May That hopeless, hopeless game that only the lonely scheme That soon somewhere, you'll find a love that used to care And you recall each fun time Those picnics at the beach when love was new It well could be that one time That a hopeless, a hopeless little dream like that comes true If you find love hang on to each caress And never let love go Oh, you will know, you'll know the loneliness The heartbreak that only the lonely know
