People say love finds a way into the lonely heart into the darkest night whatever part you take whether you play it bitter whether you play it smart whether you know better however you might ache. And now it is a lonely man who tries to sing this song Because he’s been in love at times and never loved for long People say love is the thing for every type of pain They say that if it makes it come then it will make it leave again They say it gives more than it takes however it may seem whatever part you choose whether you play it heavy whether you play it loose whether you ask for what you get whether you win or lose And now it is a lonely man who tries to sing this song Because he’s been in love at times and never loved for long Because he’s hoping for a time he’s never seen as yet Because he’s hoping for a love he’s never going to get But people say love finds a way into the lonely heart into the darkest night whatever part you take whether you think it’s special whether you think it’s cheap whether you expect it it’s going to do its thing
