[Intro]
Oh yeah

[Verse 1]
Loneliness is always looking for a friend
It found me once
And it has been around since then
Loneliness is never waiting by the door
It sweeps right through
And it will never be ignored

[Pre-Chorus]
Why, why was I chosen?
Why am I left without?

[Chorus]
The love of my life, the love that I need
The love that they say is in life for free
The love of my dreams
The love that I want
Loneliness knows me by name

[Verse 2]
Loneliness knows everything I keep inside
My endless thoughts in the silence of the night
Loneliness is the one who made me see
Ain't nobody else
Who can make a change but me no

[Pre-Chorus]
Why, why was I chosen?
Why am I left without?

[Chorus]
The love of my life, the love that I need
The love that they say is in life for free
The love of my dreams, the love that I want
Loneliness knows me by name

[Bridge]
Less is more and that would be the vacant space
The cried out tears and a never ending maze
Oh I have found what only loneliness provides
A strength within knowing I will find

[Chorus]
The love of my life, the love that I need
The love that they say is in life for free
The love of my dreams, the love that I want
Loneliness knows me by name
The love of my life (Love of my life)
The love that I need (Love that I need)
The love that they say is in life for free (Oh yeah)
The love of my dreams, the love that I want
Loneliness knows me by name
