Only a Lonely Heart Knows Lyrics

Life holds no fascination
Without you here with me
Each hour's eternity
And friends are small consolation
Talk doesn't ease the pain
The hurt can't be explained

[CHORUS]
Only a lonely heart knows
How the memory cuts like a knife
Since you walked out my life
I'm half crazy day and night
And only a lonely heart knows

How the heartache
It grows and grows
Oh, how long does it take
Till the heartache goes
Only a lonely
Only a lonely heart knows
Time is a friend and an enemy
In time the hurt might end
Till then the walls close in

I'm so lost
I'm numbed by your leaving me
I sit alone and stare
You don't know
Till you've been there
[repeat CHORUS]

Tell me how long does it take
Till the heartache goes

Only a lonely
Only a lonely
Yes, only a lonely
Only a lonely heart knows
