[Verse 1]
When you're standing on the edge of nowhere
There's only one way up
So your heart's gotta go there
Through the darkest nights
See the light shine bright
When heroes fall, in love or war
They live forever

[Chorus]
This is a song for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight?
For the broken hearted, battle scarred
I'll be by your side
And this is a song for the lonely
When your dreams won't come true
Can you hear this prayer?
'Cause someone's there for you

[Verse 2]
Love don't need a reason
She can pick you up
Or leave you bleeding
I've seen a strong man cry
I know the reason why
We all forgive, we all forget
We just keep believing
[Chorus]
This is a song for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight?
For the broken hearted, battle scarred
I'll be by your side
And this is a song for the lonely
When your dreams won't come true
Can you hear this prayer?
'Cause someone's there for you

[Bridge]
(Don't give up) So let it find you
(Just hold on) Wherever you go
(Hear me now) I'm right beside you
You don't have to look no more
You don't have to look no more
Oh, no
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright

[Chorus]
This is a song (For the lonely)
A song for the lonely
(Can you hear me tonight?)
And that's not you only
Through the darkest nights
You're gonna see the light
Love don't need a reason
Just to leave you bleeding
Can you hear this prayer?
Someone's there
This is a song for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight?
For the broken hearted, battle scarred
I'll be by your side
And this is a song for the lonely
