Annie Lennox Loneliness Lyrics

Loneliness Lyrics

Loneliness
Is a place that I know well
It's the distance between us
And
the space inside ourselves
And emptiness....
Is the chattering in your
head
It's the call of the living
And the race from life to death
Woa
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
Woa 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

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
More than 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
Looki' out for you
Are you there
for me?
'Cause I'm here for you
