Ooh once I thought that
Love was a toy for girls and boys
I never gave my heart
I just played the part right from the start
Then there was you sweet you
With a love that I knew I knew was true
But in my pride I left you baby
Oh just hangin` on now love has gone
Oh only a lonely man would know
The bitter tears I`ve cried since I lost you darlin`
Since you said goodbye
Only a lonely man would know
The hurt inside of me since I left my pride
Make a fool of me
Ask any lonely man you see darlin`
Walk up and ask any lonely man like me baby
Ooh foolishly girl I broke your heart
Now we`re apart
Now in my lonely room I
Just reminisce long for your kiss
And through my lonely tears
I can see ahead long lonely years
Without your love
My world my world`s at an end
Blinds closin` in now I know
Oh what I was too slow in learnin`
Oh now I know
No that I`m all alone my heart is yearnin`
Oh only a lonely man would know
The bitter tears I`ve cried since I lost you darlin`
Since you said goodbye
Ask any lonely man you see baby
Go on and ask him baby
Only a lonely man would know
The bitter tears I`ve cried since I lost you darlin`
Since you said goodbye
Ooh only a lonely man would know
The hurt inside
