Ooh ooh ooh ooh

When the world is ready to fall,

On your little shoulders

And when you're feelin' lonely and small,

 you need somebody there to hold you

 You can call out my name, when you're only lonely

 Now don't you ever be ashamed,

 when you're only lonely

When you need somebody around,

on the nights that try you

I was there when you were a queen,

 and I'll be the last one there beside you

 So you can call out my name,

 when you're only lonely

 Now don't you ever be ashamed,

 when you're only lonely

 (You're only lonely)

 (You're only lonely)

 (You're only lonely)

Ooh...when the world is ready to fall,

 on your little shoulders

And when you're feelin' lonely and small,

 you need somebody there to hold you

 So don't you ever be ashamed,

 when you're only lonely

 Darling call out my name,

 when you're only lonely

 (You're only lonely)

When you're only lonely

(You're only lonely)

 Oh, it's no crime

 Darlin' we got lots of time

Whoa (You're only lonely)

 Whoa (You're only lonely)

 No, there's nothin' wrong with you

 Darlin', I get lonely too

 (You're only lonely)

(You're only lonely)

 So, if you need me

 All you've gotta do is call me

 Now you're only lonely

 Ooh ooh ooh ooh

 Ooh ooh ooh ooh

 Oh my, my, my, my . . .
