Lonely, my life used to be lonely
|
Lonely as the single lonely number one
|
Lonely like a lonely sun
|
With not even one iota to shine upon
|
|
Crying, deep inside I was crying
|
Like the muddy Mississippi, my tears flowed
|
Carrying with it my lonely soul
|
With not even a clue of who,
|
where or what I would become
|
|
Oh, how I longed to be possessed by one somebody
|
To hold me, control me, show me what I should
|
do with my broken life
|
But oh, was I lifted when I let your light
|
inside my body
|
Then I shed my sorrows for joy, love and
|
you in my, my, my, my li-li-life
|
|
I'm dancing to the rythm of your love
|
Singing sweet melodies of your sweet, sweet love
|
Forever greateful for your love
|
|
Money, oh how did I have money
|
Enough to last me from the start til the end of time
|
With some more to leave behind
|
And yet I was a cent-less pauper in distress
|
I can, feel the very presence of your love here
|
Though I've never seen the pleasure of your smile
|
No, I've never touched your hand
|
And yet you've given me eternal happiness
|
|
Oh, how I longed to be possessed by one somebody
|
To hold me, control me, show me what I should
|
do with my broken life
|
But oh, was I lifted when I let your light
|
inside my body
|
Then I shed my sorrows for joy, love and you in my,
|
my, my, my li-li-life
|
|
I'm dancing to the rythm of your love
|
Singing sweet melodies of your sweet, sweet love
|
Forever greateful for your sweet, sweet love
|
[Repeat]

Giving all praises of your sweet, sweet love
