Ask The Lonely Lyrics
[Background:] Just ask the lonely
[Levi Stubbs:]
When you feel that need
To make it all alone,
Remember no one is thinking of,
Going alone
Just ask the lonely...
They know the hurt and pain,
Of losing a love, you can never regain
[Background:] Just ask the lonely
[Levi:] Just ask the lonely
[Levi:] The young and foolish laugh at love
[Four Tops:] Woo-hoo
[Levi:] So they run away...
[Four Tops:] Woo-hoo hoo hoo
[Levi:] Confident and sure that fate
[Four Tops:] Woo-hoo
[Levi:] Will bring another love their way
[Background:] Aaah
[Levi:] But ask the lonely....
[Background:] Aaah
How vainly a heart can yearn,
[Background:] Aaah
[Levi:] For losing a love that will never return
[Background:] Just ask the lonely
[Levi:] Just ask the lonely....
They'll tell you
[Background:] Ooooh, Woo-hoo hoo-hoo
Ooooooh
[Background:] Aaah
[Levi:] They'll tell you a story of sadness,
[Background:] Aaah
A story too hard to believe...
[Background:] Aaah
[Levi:] They'll tell you the loneliest one is me
[Background:] Just ask the lonely
[Levi:] Just ask the lonely
[Levi:] Ask me...
I'm the loneliest one you'll see
[Background:] Just ask the lonely
[fade to end]
When you feel that need
To make it all alone,
Remember no one is thinking of,
Going alone
They know the hurt and pain,
Of losing a love, you can never regain
[Levi:] Just ask the lonely
[Four Tops:] Woo-hoo
[Levi:] So they run away...
[Four Tops:] Woo-hoo hoo hoo
[Levi:] Confident and sure that fate
[Four Tops:] Woo-hoo
[Levi:] Will bring another love their way
[Levi:] But ask the lonely....
[Background:] Aaah
How vainly a heart can yearn,
[Background:] Aaah
[Levi:] For losing a love that will never return
[Levi:] Just ask the lonely....
They'll tell you
Ooooooh
[Levi:] They'll tell you a story of sadness,
[Background:] Aaah
A story too hard to believe...
[Background:] Aaah
[Levi:] They'll tell you the loneliest one is me
[Levi:] Just ask the lonely
I'm the loneliest one you'll see

I am a Motown junkie. It doesn't get better than this. "They'll tell you a story of sadness...a story to hard to believe....they'll tell you the loneliest one is me." "They" being the lonely. LOVE ME SOME FOUR TOPS!
Um.... These are the lyrics to the song of the same name by Journey, not the version by the Four Tops, originally done by Ivy Jo Hunter... Those lyrics are:
