Dum, dum, dum, dumdy-doo, wah
Whoa, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa-oow, wah-wah
Only the lonely
Only the lonely

Only the lonely (dum, dum, dum, dumdy-doo, wah)
Know the way I feel tonight (whoa, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah)
Only the lonely (dum, dum, dum, dumdy-doo, wah)
Know this feelin' ain't right (dum, dum, dum, dumdy-doo, wah)

There goes my baby
There goes my heart
They've gone forever
So far apart

But only the lonely
Know why I cry
Only the lonely

Dum, dum, dum, dumdy-doo, wah
Whoa, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, wah-wah
Only the lonely
Only the lonely

Only the lonely (dum, dum, dum, dumdy-doo, wah)
Know the heartaches I've been through (whoa, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah)
Only the lonely (dum, dum, dum, dumdy-doo, wah)
Know I cry, cry for you (dum, dum, dum, dumdy-doo, wah)

Maybe tomorrow
A new romance
No more sorrow
But that's the chance
You've gotta take
If your lonely heart breaks
Only the lonely

Dum, dum, dum, dumdy-doo, wah
