Lyrics I've Been Lonely for So Long - John Farnham

Weah, yeah

I've been lonely for so long
Don't seem like happiness will come along
I've been lonely for so long
Don't seem like happiness will come along

These ain't wrinkles over my head
Everybody's throwing rocks in my bed
Just can't seem to get ahead in life
Woo, nothing I do ever turns out right
(Won't somebody help me please?)

'Cause I've been
Lonely for so long
Don't seem like happiness will come along
I've been lonely for so long
Don't seem like happiness will come along

I lay awake every night
Trying to figure out how to make things right
There's got to be a better way, I know
To shake this monkey off 'cause he's making me sore
(Won't somebody help me please?)

'Cause I've been
Lonely for so long
Don't seem like happiness will come along
I've been lonely for so long
Don't seem like happiness will come along

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I lay awake every night
Trying to figure out how to make things right
There's got to be a better way, I know
To shake this monkey off 'cause he's making me sore
(Won't somebody help me please?)

'Cause I've been
Lonely for so long
Don't seem like happiness will come along
I've been so lonely for so long
Don't seem like happiness will come along

I've been lonely for so long
Don't seem like happiness will come along
I've been lonely for so long
Don't seem like happiness will come along

I've been lonely, yes I have now
So lonely, whoo-ooh-hoo
I've been lonely, yeah
So lonely
I've been lonely
So lonely, yeah, yeah
I've been lonely, yeah
So lonely
Whoo-hey-yeah

Whoo-hoo
Yee-hay-yeah
