I watch the tides roll in
I stood there and watch them roll away again
Thinkin' about that woman
Oh, that I loved

I'm so lonely
Oh, I'm so lonely
I'm so lonely
I could die

Why was man made for love
When love is so hard to find
And I'm still searching
For that love of mine

I'm so lonely, babe
Oh, I'm so lonely now
Oh, I'm lonely
Oh, I'm lonely
I could die

Yeah, I never like this
In my life before
And how long it's gonna last
Lord, I just don't know

I tell you
I'm lonely, Father
Oh, I'm some kind of lonely
Right now
Oh Lord, I'm lonely
Oh, I'm so lonely
Oh Lord, I could die

I'm alone
And I'm tired
And I'm lonely
And I'm real tired now

I'm living my way across the water
I'm looking way across the water now
And all I see is darkness all around
I can't see nothing but darkness around that water

Oh my Lord
Oh Lord, don't you know
I'm lonely
