  • Empty heart is full of love
    For anyone who cares
    Lost and urgent look is in her eyes
    Ooo the nights without somebody there
    To hold her when she breaks down and cries

    She's a lonely dreamer
    I knew it from the start
    So afraid to let her feelings show
    Lonely dreamer, I've really got to know
    Will I share your love before I go

    Well I hung around and watched her
    Like a child in the dark
    Afraid of all the things I couldn't see
    When I tried to tell her of my love
    She'd smile as if to say
    She never thought we could ever spend our time that way

    She's a lonely dreamer
    I knew it from the start
    So afraid to let her feelings show
    Lonely dreamer, I've really got to know
    Will I share your love before I go

    She's a lonely dreamer
    I knew it from the start
    So afraid to let her feelings show
    Lonely dreamer, I've really got to know
    Will I share your love before I go

    All the time she tried to find someone to love
    It's been the same
    Happiness is ended with the tears
    Now you give your heart away
    Try to forget yesterday
    When true love calls, you'd think you would hear

    Lonely dreamer
    I knew it from the start
    So afraid to let her feelings show
    Lonely dreamer, I've really got to know
    Will I share your love before I go
