I Wish I Wasn't Alone

Once when I was little
I was happy and carefree
I used to run around laughing
Until it was time for tea



I used to play games
And smile all the time
I used to feel on top of the world
I used to feel fine





It's amazing how things change
When people let you down
And how that once happy face
Turns into a solemn frown


You search and search
For someone who cares
Anyone who understands
Anyone who dares






Loneliness, it hurts
It kills you deep inside
It makes you feel empty
It stops you in your stride


You cry yourself to sleep
Hugging your pillow tight
Wishing for someone
To hold you through the night
