Nobody Wants to Be Lonely

I'm longing to hold you
My body's longing to hold you
I don't want to cry
And I've been waiting for you all of my life
It's a serenade
Why?
I don't want to be lonely
Do you hear my song?

Nobody wants to cry
My body's longing to hold you
Why?
Why don't you let me love you?
Run to me, run to me
Why don't you let me love you?
Can you hear my voice?

Time is precious and it's slipping away
Why?
Like a broken arrow
And I've been waiting for you all of my life
Nobody wants to be lonely
Nobody wants to be lonely
Before I start going crazy

Nobody wants to be lonely, so why?
Why?
Looking out the window
Time is precious and it's slipping away
Nobody wants to be lonely
Why?
I don't want to cry
My body's longing to hold you
Why don't you let me love you?
Why?
Nobody wants to be lonely
Why?
Nobody wants to cry
And I've been waiting for you all of my life
Why don't you let me love you?
My body's longing to hold you
And suddenly you're flying down the stairs

Nobody wants to be lonely, so why?
Nobody wants to cry
No, no, no, no
So bad it hurts inside
Don't walk away, don't walk away

Time is precious and it's slipping away
Nobody wants to cry
Oh, why, why, why?

Can't you see that?
So bad it hurts inside
Nobody wants to be lonely
'Cause I'm dying
Your heart is cold and lost the will to love
I don't want to cry

Nobody wants to be lonely, so why?
Just like the air you're breathing
Why?
Don't walk away, don't walk away
Into my arms, baby
Why?
Why?
So your heart can find me
I don't want to be lonely
I need you here in my life
Come to me, come to me
So bad it hurts inside

Why?
And you're all alone
Nobody wants to be lonely
So bad it hurts inside
Nobody wants to cry
Nobody wants to cry
Here I stand in the shadows
I want to feel you need me
