A lonely heart knows
A lonely sorrow
A lonely heart knows
A troubled mind
Down in a heart grows
A sad tomorrow
When in a heart flows
A love that's blind
When loves shadow
Is descending
And your tears
Fall like rain
A lonely heart knows
The fate that's pending
A lonely heart knows
Only pain
And when those bonds you
Resolve to sever
To re-weld them
With someone new
I hope then, dear
That you would never
Know the pain
That I've gone through
Then you were cheated
By your new love
And your tears
Fell like rain
And now you know, dear
That your true love
With a lonely heart
Knows only pain
