Loneliness Lyrics - Bare - Annie Lennox

Loneliness 

Is a place that I know well 

It's the distance between us 

And the space inside ourselves 

Emptiness 

Is the chattering in your head 

It's the call of the living 

And the race from life to death 

Woh and I know 

Yes and I know 

What you feel? 

And I've got a longin' that's hard to find 

Won't give me no peace of mind 

Something that I've lived with all along 

Days and weeks and months and years 

Filling in the time my dear 

Tryin' to find the place where I belong 

Hopelessness 

Is the darkness in your heart 

It's the sound of one hand clapping 

While it's pulling you apart 

Woh and I know 

Yes and I know 

What you feel? 

I know what you feel, baby 

And I've got a longin' that's hard to find 

Won't give me no peace of mind 

Something that I've lived with all along 

Days and weeks and months and years 

Filling in the time my dear 

Tryin' to find the place where I belong 

And I got a hunger that's hard to fill 

Driving me on overkill 

Tellin' me that everything's gone wrong 

Got me a need that I can't break 

All that I can hardly take 

Somehow I still keep on going strong 

When I call your name, I'm gonna scream out loud 

I'll say "Here I am standing in the crowd" 

You'll say "Come to me with your open mind 

You never know what you still might find" 

But you keep me here like a cancelled flight 

An empty train running through the night 

An orphan child a broken shoe 

And I'm still down here lookin' out for you 

Are you there for me? 

'Cause I'm here for you 

Are you there for me? 

I'm here for you 

Are you there for me? 

I'm here for you 

Are you there for me? 

I'm here for you 

I'm here for you 

I'm here for you
