Just ask the lonely

When you feel that need
To make it all alone,
Remember no one is thinking of,
Going alone

Just ask the lonely
They know the hurt and pain,
Of losing a love, you can never regain

Just ask the lonely
Just ask the lonely

The young and foolish laugh at love (Woo hoo)
So they run away (Woo hoo hoo hoo)
Confident and sure that fate (Woo hoo)
Will bring another love their way

(Ah) But ask the lonely
(Ah) How vainly a heart can yearn,
(Ah) For losing a love that will never return

Just ask the lonely
Just ask the lonely
They'll tell you

Ooh, Woo hoo hoo hoo ooh

(Ah) They'll tell you a story of sadness,
(Ah) A story too hard to believe
Ah, they'll tell you the loneliest one is me

Just ask the lonely
Just ask the lonely

Ask me
I'm the loneliest one you'll see

Just ask the lonely
