paroles de chanson Only a Lonely Man Would Know - The Temptations

Once I thought that
Love was a toy (for girls and boys)
I never gave my heart
I just played the part (right from the start)
Then there was you, sweet you
With love that I knew, I knew was true
But in my pride, I left you, baby
Just hanging on, now love has gone
(Now I know)
Now I know, baby
What I was too, too slow to learn, woo
Now I know
Now that I′m all alone and my heart is yearnin'
Only a lonely man would know
Only a lonely man would know
The bitter tears I′ve cried since I lost you darling
Since you said goodbye
Only a lonely, lonely man would know
The pain inside of me, since I left my pride
Make a fool of me
Ask any lonely man, you see, yeah
Ask any lonely man like me, yeah
Foolishly girl, I broke your heart
(Now we're apart)
Now, in my lonely room, I
Just reminisce (long for your kiss)
And through my lonely tears
I can see ahead long lonely years
Without your love
My world, my world's at an end
Blinds closing in
You don′t know honey
How much I need you, baby, oo
You don′t know
How sorry I am that I meant to be, baby
Only a lonely man
Only a lonely, lonely man would know
The bitter tears I've cried since I′ve lost you
Since you said goodbye
Only a lonely man
Only a lonely, lonely, lonely man would know
The pain inside me, since I left my pride
Make a fool of me
Ask any lonely man, you see, yeah, baby, oo
Honey, honey, just ask any lonely man like me, yeah
Ask it baby (only a lonely man would know)
Only a lonely man would know, baby
The bitter tears I've cried since I lost you (only a lonely man would know)
Since you said goodbye
Ask it baby (only a lonely man would know)
Ask any lonely man, would know
The bitter pain inside of me, since I left my pride
Make a fool of me
Only a lonely man would know
