Have you ever been lonely?
Have you ever been blue?
Have you ever loved someone
Just as I love you?

Can't you see I'm sorry
For each mistake I've made?
Can't you see I've changed, Dear?
Can't you see that I've paid?

Be a little forgiving;
Take me back in your heart
How can I go on livin'
Now that we're apart?

If you knew what I've been through
You would know why I ask you:
Have you ever been lonely?
Have you ever been blue?

[Instrumental Break]

Can't you see I'm sorry
For each mistake I've made?
Can't you see I've changed, Dear?
Can't you see that I've paid?
Be a little forgiving;
Take me back in your heart
How can I go on livin'
Now that we're apart?

If you knew what I've been through
You would know why I ask you:
Have you ever been lonely?
Have you ever been blue?
