Empty inside, unable to cry Unloved and alone Life was good but it seemed to have passed me by But yearn I do for a tender hand A tender hand to hold A whisper that takes me from the cold It seems so distant, so long ago When I felt happy and whole I feel a wrench of my heart to think I may never feel The caress of arms that say they care Alone alone i shall ever be Alone alone i will be to my last breath I breathe I feel the ache, the pain, and the longing strains I’ll turn my heart to stone if it could ease the stabbing pain A gentle caress, a soft touch But to hope for that I do not dare Empty, lost and confused If I should try to fill my void, to ease my pain Or should I learn to accept my loneliness My emptiness, my pain.

Empty inside, unable to cry Unloved and alone Life was good but it seemed to have passed me by But yearn I do for a tender hand A tender hand to hold A whisper that takes me from the cold It seems so distant, so long ago When I felt happy and whole I feel a wrench of my heart to think I may never feel The caress of arms that say they care Alone alone i shall ever be Alone alone i will be to my last breath I breathe I feel the ache, the pain, and the longing strains I’ll turn my heart to stone if it could ease the stabbing pain A gentle caress, a soft touch But to hope for that I do not dare Empty, lost and confused If I should try to fill my void, to ease my pain Or should I learn to accept my loneliness My emptiness, my pain.
