[Verse 1] Lonely grief is hounding me Like the lonely shadow hounding me It's always there, just out of sight Like a frightening dream on a lightening night [Verse 2] Lonely wind cries out my name Sad as haunted music in the rain It's born of grief and born of woe But I hear it call and I've got to go [Chorus] Where can I be headed for? The blues crawled in my door To lick my heart once more Love lives in a lonely land Where there's no helping hand To understand [Bridge] Why does it bring this ache to me? Why? It don't matter why I only know misery Has to be part of me [Chorus] Never hope to count on love To be a partner of That heaven up above Never hope to understand Love is a barren land A lonely land [Outro] A lonely land
