If I deceive him even once, I couldn't face him
Oh, I know I couldn't face him
And true to the one I love
I have to tell him, oh yes, I have to tell him
Oh, let me be, oh, let me be
All through the night
Let me, let me be lonely
'Cause I love him only
He'd say goodbye and I would die, yes
Oh, let me be lonely
Oh yeah, let me be lonely
I wanna be there, be there by his side
Oh, won't you let me be lonely
And hold you tight
Oh, let me, let me be lonely
Oh, let me be, let me, let me
I've gotta be someone he's proud
Oh, let me be, oh, let me be
If I give in to loneliness
Let me be lonely
And if I did, what could he do?
Oh, oh, yeah, let me be lonely, yeah
When he comes back to me
All through my life and if I ever let him down
What a day that will be
The one I love
I wanna be there, be there by the door
'Cause I love him only
To come home to some happy day
