Years ago,
I dreamt of the life i'd lead
Years ago,
I thought of the things i'd do
Years ago,
I dreamt of the girl i'd love

When i grew older
To be the young man
To be the grown man
To take my place in the world

Lonely... Lonely...
I'm a lonely, lonely man
Lonely... Lonely...
I'm a lonely, lonely man

I grew up,
Went to walk an left my dreams.
I grew up,
Found than life has hidden sides
I grew up,
Tested things with my own hands

Then i met the young girl,
To share my story,
To love and marry,
And proudly carry to my home

Lonely... Lonely...
I'm a lonely, lonely man
Lonely... Lonely...
I'm a lonely, lonely man

As years passed
I learnt that love doesn't fast.
As years passed,
I saw life's not what it seems.
As years passed,
I have gone back to my dreams.

But my dreams grew sadder,
And know i feel old.
My heart has grown cold,
And the story's told of my life.

Lonely...
Oh...oh, i'm so lonely
I'm lonely...
Lonely man
