Once again you're on your own Lonely man, nobody can Reach through your shell, to know you well And give you light, where there is night In the city Once again, once again, you're on your own Who's to blame, who's to blame, it's such a shame No-one ever hears your name, or plays your game You'll live your life all alone There's no other way that you can go But to live each day as you can Make of it my friend, lonely man Once again you're on your own Another place, another face But the lights, like neon eyes Can take you out, out of the crowd's In the city Once again, once again, you're on your own Who's to blame, who's to blame, it's such a shame No-one knows just who you are, man where's your star You'll live your life all alone There's no other way that you can go But to live each day as you can Make of it my friend, lonely man
