[Verse 1]
There is a better fight
A cause close to my heart
The struggle against loneliness
That's tearing you apart
[Chorus]
Where you gonna run to now from loneliness?
(Loneliness)
Who you gonna turn to out of loneliness?
(Loneliness)
[Verse 2]
Like Ringo walking by the canal
Downcast and alone
You're taking time to play that part
A man who skims a stone
[Chorus]
Where you gonna run to now from loneliness?
(Loneliness)
Who you gonna turn to out of loneliness?
(Loneliness)
When you gonna not say "no" and make the answer "yes"?
Who is here to help you out?
Oh, tell me, can't you guess?
[Post-Chorus]
(Loneliness)
(Loneliness)
[Verse 3]
Wherever you go, you take yourself with you
There's nowhere you can hide
From the loneliness that's haunting your life
The sense of wounded pride
Everybody needs time to think
Nobody can live without love
[Chorus]
Who you gonna turn to now from loneliness?
(Loneliness)
Who could come and help you out? Oh, can't you guess?
(Loneliness)
When you gonna not say "no" and make the answer "yes"?
Who is here to help you turn your back on loneliness?
[Outro]
