Sarah Vaughan
Lonely Woman
[Verse 1]
Lonely woman, lonely woman
Craving love and slaving to forget
A life of torture this is
To yearn for someone's kisses
With lips you've wasted, untasted yet

[Verse 2]
Lonely woman, only woman
Understands the pain I've clearly shown
What trick can fate have done me
That men must spurn and shun me?
My only crime is I'm alone

[Bridge]
As I cross the street, the men that I meet
Have eyes of fun for everyone but me
In my room I pass the looking glass
And see the bloom of girl who'd waiting
Killed by all my heart's complaining

[Verse 3]
Lonely, lonely woman, so lonely woman
As I sleep I weep in misery
Oh, stars that shine above me
Please send me someone to love me
And take my loneliness from me
[Outro]
Lonely, lonely woman
