Lonely Won't Leave Me Alone

Lonely Won't Leave Me Alone - Jermaine Jackson

Why do I seem to be

Caught up inside a dream all my life

It's always been my shadow and me

Over my shoulder

There's always a voice somewhere

Saying I never should try to set my heart free

I wish that love would come

And take me in her arms

Show me what I've never known

Where I could hold someone

And words like right and wrong

Would just fade away like yesterday

Lonely won't leave me alone

Lonely won't leave me alone

Why tell me why

Won't even let me fall in love

Oh ho

Everywhere I go

Always by my side

Lonely won't let me fall in love no

I try to say I love you

But the words won't come through

In my eyes see all the tears and sad memories

Why can't I start out new

And leave that old feeling too far behind

I guess that lonely needs company

Around each bend of road

I'm thinking that in time

There will be that rainbow's end

Or when I follow those

Self illusions I find

And it's only lonely and me again ooh

Lonely won't leave me alone

Lonely won't leave me alone

Why tell me why

Lonely just keeps my heart out of touch

Oh ho

Everywhere I go

Always by my side

Lonely won't let me fall in love

Won't leave me alone

Oh no

Won't even let me fall in love

I wish that love would come

Take me in her arms

Lonely won't let me fall in love

Won't leave me alone

Ooh I know

Lonely won't let me fall in love no
