There you are, in a darkened roomAnd you're all alone, looking out the windowYour heart is cold and lost the will to loveLike a broken arrowHere I stand in the shadows (in the shadows)Come to me, come to meCan't you see that
Nobody wants to be lonelyNobody wants to cryMy body's longing to hold youSo bad it hurts insideTime is precious and it's slipping awayAnd I've been waiting for you all of my life (oh)Nobody wants to be lonelySo why (why), why don't you let me love you?
Why (ooh, yeah), why (oh why)Why (ooh, yeah)
Can you hear my voice? Do you hear my song?It's a serenade, so your heart can find me, ohAnd suddenly you're flying down the stairsInto my arms, baby, oh
Before I start going crazy (going crazy, ohh)Run to me (run to me)Because I'm dying

I wanna feel you need me (feel you need me)Just like the air you're breathing (breathing)I need you here in my lifeDon't walk away, don't walk awayDon't walk away, don't walk awayNo, no, no, no
Nobody wants to be lonelyNobody wants to cry, yeah, yeah
