Leave me alone
I need time to think
To walk on the beach
Or stop for a drink

I want solitude
I don't want to share
I want someone near
When I want them there

You know I like to eat
And sleep alone
I can do everything
All on my own

I'm a lone wolf
I won't apologize
But there's another voice
Inside that cries

(I) And nobody seems
To understand
That a lone wolf
Can be a lonely man

(II) I want to be alone
Don't leave me
I want to walk alone
Stand by me
Want to be on my own
Please help me
Why can't you understand?
Why can't you understand?
I don't need anyone
Please love me
I'll go all by myself
Come with me
Why don't you go away
But be here
Why can't you understand?
Why can't you understand?

I go where I want
And do what I please
I don't really need
Any sympathy

When I get on a plane
To fly away
Don't want anyone cryin'
Come on please stay

I'm a lone wolf
Won't apologize
But there's another voice
Inside that cries
