Roy Orbison › Lyrics › Only the Lonely

Dum dum dummy doo ah
Ooh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh oh oh oh ooh ah ah
Only the lonely, only the lonely

Only the lonely
(Dum dum dummy doo ah)
Know the way I feel tonight
(Ooh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Only the lonely
(Dum dum dummy doo ah)
Know this feeling ain't right
(Dum dum dummy doo ah)

And there goes my baby
And there goes my heart
They're gone forever
So far apart

But only the lonely know
Why I cry only the lonely
(Dum dum dummy doo ah)
(Ooh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Oh, oh oh oh oh ooh ah ah)
(Only the lonely, only the lonely)

Only the lonely
(Dum dum dummy doo ah)
Know the heartaches I've been through
(Ooh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Only the lonely
(Dum dum dummy doo ah)
Know I cry and cry for you
(Dum dum dummy doo ah)

Maybe tomorrow
A new romance
No more sorrow
But that's the chance
You got to take

If your lonely heart breaks
Only the lonely
(Dum dum dummy doo ah)
