Who Wants To Be Lonely

Who wants to be lonely?
Nobody
Who wants to feel empty?
Nobody
Who said it would be easy?
Nobody
Who said it would be fair?
Nobody
And when the bell was silent
When the veil was drawn
And all again was hidden
From the hunger of the dawn
We crossed ourselves with water
Crossed ourselves with fear
For the place had been
Wide open
And we’d been much too near
Who wants to be lonely?
Nobody
I’m trying to find the feeling
Of the woman in me
Who said it was easy?
Nobody
Who wants to be lonely?
Nobody
I’m trying to find the meaning
Of a woman called me
Who wants to be lonely?
No, not me
Who said it would be easy?
No, not me
Who wants to feel empty?
No, not me
Who wants to be lonely?
