Lonely World
[Intro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 1]
Sexy girl on a plane
Why you crying? What's your name?
Who you running from?
Teddy bear, pink room
Fresh out of high school
Sweet like the evening sun
Mama says, "Don't you think you're special"
Daddy says, "You're my queen"
She's afraid, she's going nowhere
Locked and lost between

[Chorus]
But oh, lonely girl don't you worry, babe
How can you get by?
Lonely girl, don't you live your life
Through someone else's eyes
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 2]
Egg faced boy on a train
Why you sad? What's your name?
Who you running from?
Packed house, shared jeans
Front porch, moonbeams
He's gotta get out of this town
No more Bible, he will travel
He'll learn so much in school
Daddy drinks himself into courage
Says "Fuck you, I'm no fool"
[Chorus]
Oh, lonely boy, don't you worry, baby
How can you get by?
Lonely boy, don't you see your life
In someone else's eyes
Lonely girl, don't you worry, baby
How can you get by?
Lonely girl, don't you see your life
Through someone else's eyes

[Bridge]
Oh, dream on
Oh, dream on, dreamers
Oh, keep on dreaming
Oh

[Verse 3]
Beautiful mom, can you smile?
Can you glow? Can you sing me my favorite song?
Got fever, warm clothes are clean, kids are gone
What to do, she's a sleeping sun
She says birds fly out her window
She watches jealously
She says she's too old for new things
But mama, you've got wings
[Chorus]
Oh, lonely girl, don't you lose your dreams
In someone else's cries
Lonely girl, don't you see your life
In someone else's eyes
Lonely world, don't you find your faith
In someone else's lies
Lonely world, don't you live your life
Through someone else's eyes

[Outro]
Oh, oh, dream on
Oh, ooh, ooh, dream on, dreamers
Keep on dream on
Oh, ooh, ooh, dream on
Oh, dream on, dreamer
Oh, keep on dreamin'
Oh, keep on
Oh
Oh
