[Verse 1]
Please lock me away
And don't allow the day
Here inside
Where I hide
With my loneliness

[Chorus]
I don't care what they say
I won't stay in a world without love

[Verse 2]
Birds sing out of tune
And rain hides the moon
I'm okay
Here I'll stay
With my loneliness

[Chorus]
I don't care what they say
I won't stay in a world without love

[Bridge]
So I wait and in a while
I will see my true love smile
He may come, I know not when
When he does I'll know, so baby, until then

[Verse 3]
Lock me away
And don't allow the day
Here inside
Where I hide
With my loneliness

[Chorus]
I don't care what they say
I won't stay in a world without love

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
So I wait and in a while
I will see my true love smile
He may come, I know not when
When he does I'll know, so baby, until then

[Verse 4]
Lock me away
And don't allow the day
Here inside
Where I hide
With my loneliness

[Chorus]
I don't care what they say
I won't stay in a world without love

[Chorus]
I don't care what they say
I won't stay in a world without love
