Intro

Why?

Why? Why?

There you are in a darkened room. And you're all

alone looking out the window. Your heart is cold

and lost the will to love-- like a broken arrow.

Here I stand in the shadows. Come to me, Come

to me Can't you see that,

Nobody wants to be lonely. nobody wants to cry.

My body's longing to hold you so bad it hurts

inside. Time is precious and it's slipping away

and I've been waiting for you all of my life.

Nobody wants to be lonely, so why,--- why don't

you let me love you? (Why?) (Why?) (Why?)

Can you hear my voice? Do you hear my song? It's

a serenade so your heart can find me, ooh. And

suddenly you're flying down the stairs into my

arms baby, ooh. Before i start going crazy run

to me, run to me cause I'm dying.

Nobody wants to be lonely. nobody wants to cry.

My body's longing to hold you so bad it hurts

inside. Time is precious and it's slipping away

and I've been waiting for you all of my life.

Nobody wants to be lonely, so why, why----

why don't you let me love you? I wanna feel you

near me just like the air you're breathing. I

need you here in my life. Don't walk away. Don't

walk away. Don't walk away, walk away no, no.

Nobody wants to be lonely. Nobody wants to cry.

Nobody wants to be lonely. Nobody wants to cry.

My body's longing to hold you so bad it hurts

inside. Time is precious and it's slipping away

and I've been waiting for you all of my life.

Nobody wants to be lonely, so why, why---

why don't you let me love you?
