Lonely Love Lyrics

I heard you cry
Cry
To a lonesome lullaby
lullaby
And the only love
Is a lonely love
And now you know why

While aglow
In dulcet tones
You heard a low
Troubled note
And though
You found
Yourself unsettled
By the disquieting sound
Don't get you down
Don't get you down

Home
Where you wanna be alone
With your lovely little love
And my how you have grown
Have you come into your own
Lalalala lonely little hands
Of a lonely little man
Lalalala lonely little hands
Of a lonely little man

The unkindness of
Raven love
Soon becomes
A hole in your heart
Where feeling should be but where everythingï¿½s been torn apart
Mh-mh-mh

La la la la lonely love
Lonely little love
La la la lonely little love
lonely little love
la la la la lonely love
lonely little love
La la la lonely love

I donï¿½t want no part of this lonely love
I donï¿½t want no part of this love
I donï¿½t want no part of this lonely love
I donï¿½t want no part of this love
I donï¿½t want no part of this lonely love
I donï¿½t want no part of this love
I donï¿½t want no part of this lonely love
I donï¿½t want no part of this love

I heard you cry
Cry
To a lonesome lullaby
lullaby
And the only love 
Is a lonely love
And now you know why

While aglow
In dulcet tones
You heard a low
Troubled note
And though
You found
Yourself unsettled
By the disquieting sound
Don't get you down
Don't get you down

Home
Where you wanna be alone
With your lovely little love
And my how you have grown 
Have you come into your own
Lalalala lonely little hands
Of a lonely little man
Lalalala lonely little hands
Of a lonely little man

The unkindness of
Raven love
Soon becomes
A hole in your heart
Where feeling should be but where everythingï¿½s been torn apart

La la la la lonely love
Lonely little love
La la la  lonely little love
lonely little love 
la la la la lonely love
lonely little love 
La la la lonely love

I donï¿½t want no part of this lonely love
I donï¿½t want no part of this love
I donï¿½t want no part of this lonely love
I donï¿½t want no part of this love
I donï¿½t want no part of this lonely love
I donï¿½t want no part of this love
I donï¿½t want no part of this lonely love
I donï¿½t want no part of this love

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
