  • You know, my darling, I can't stand to sleep alone
    No sweetheart in the dark to call my own
    You're my own, you're my own, I can sing it, I can grow
    But the darkness is a stranger, in our lonely, lonely, lonely lone

    Last night's parties and last night's horror show
    Smiling and welling and kissing all I know
    Give my soul, give my soul, sing it free across the sea
    Lonely spell to conjure you, but conjure hell is all I do

    Lonely, lonely, lonely, his mother told me
    The dream of love is a two-hearted dream
    Lonely, lonely, lonely, his mother told me
    The dream of love is a two-hearted dream

    They say for every high-high
    There must be a low, low, low, low, low
    And every sun ascending a lonesome moon
    Will grow, grow, grow, grow

    Drive my heart, drive my heart
    Into the fire of a burning heart's desire
    The lonely spells that you'll be seeing
    Do you hear me coming in my blue dream?

    Lonely, lonely, lonely, his mother told me
    The dream of love is a two-hearted dream
    Lonely, lonely, lonely, his mother told me
    The dream of love is a two-hearted dream

    Lonely, lonely, lonely
    Lonely, lonely, lonely Writer/s: Natasha Khan
