Marvin Gaye - Only a Lonely Man Would Know lyrics
[Marvin Gaye - Only a Lonely Man Would Know lyrics]
Mmm, once I thought that love was a toy
For girls and boys i never gave my heart
I just played the part right from the start
Then there was you, sweet you
With a love that I knew, I knew was true
But in my pride, I left you, baby
Oh, just hanging on, now love is gone
Oh, only a lonely man would know
The bitter tears I've cried since I lost you
Darling since you said goodbye
Only a lonely man would know
The hurt inside of me
(Only a lonely man would know)
Since I let my pride make a fool of me
Ask any lonely man you see, darling
(Ask him, baby ask him, baby)
Walk up and ask any lonely man like me, baby
(Ask him, baby ask him, baby)
Ooh, foolishly, girl, I broke your heart
Now we're apart
Now, in my lonely room, I just reminisce
Long for your kiss
And through my lonely tears
I can see ahead long lonely years
Without your love
My world, my world's at an end
Black's closing in now, I know, oh
What I was too slow in learning
Oh, now I know
Now that I'm all alone, my heart is yearning
Oh, only a lonely man would know
The bitter tears I've cried since I lost you
Darling since you said goodbye
Ask any lonely man you see, baby
(Ask him, baby ask him, baby)
Go on and ask him, baby
(Only a lonely man would know)
Only a lonely man would know
The bitter tears I've cried since I lost you
Darling since you said goodbye, woo
(Only a lonely man would know)
Oh, the hurt inside of me
(Only a lonely man would know) since I
For girls and boys i never gave my heart
I just played the part right from the start
Then there was you, sweet you
With a love that I knew, I knew was true
But in my pride, I left you, baby
Oh, just hanging on, now love is gone
Oh, only a lonely man would know
The bitter tears I've cried since I lost you
Darling since you said goodbye
Only a lonely man would know
The hurt inside of me
(Only a lonely man would know)
Since I let my pride make a fool of me
Ask any lonely man you see, darling
(Ask him, baby ask him, baby)
Walk up and ask any lonely man like me, baby
(Ask him, baby ask him, baby)
Ooh, foolishly, girl, I broke your heart
Now we're apart
Now, in my lonely room, I just reminisce
Long for your kiss
And through my lonely tears
I can see ahead long lonely years
Without your love
My world, my world's at an end
Black's closing in now, I know, oh
What I was too slow in learning
Oh, now I know
Now that I'm all alone, my heart is yearning
Oh, only a lonely man would know
The bitter tears I've cried since I lost you
Darling since you said goodbye
Ask any lonely man you see, baby
(Ask him, baby ask him, baby)
Go on and ask him, baby
(Only a lonely man would know)
Only a lonely man would know
The bitter tears I've cried since I lost you
Darling since you said goodbye, woo
(Only a lonely man would know)
Oh, the hurt inside of me
(Only a lonely man would know) since I
