Lonely lady living down the hall
 Don't you have any friends at all
 I never hear a knocking at your door
 Could it be you just don't try anymore?
 You've been hurt so seriously
 You act so cold but it's so easy to see
 You're a waste of real good love
 But you can't hide or run fast enough

 [Chorus]
 Somebody's gonna love you, no matter what you do
 Somebody's gonna find all the pieces of a broken heart
 Hidden inside of you
 Somebody's gonna touch you, it's just a matter of time
 And if you're ever gonna try love again, it might as well be mine

 I know exactly how a heartache feels
 It's gonna take a little time to heal
 Why must you hide away inside yourself
 You could mean so much to someone else
 Every night while you're sittin' at home
 You may be lonely but you're not alone
 There's a whole world full of people out there
 Waiting on someone like you to care

 [Chorus: until fade]
