Lyrics
Miss Lonely Heart, what will I do?
I am a lonely heart writing to you
Hoping that through your column
You will drop me a line
Saying you know a lonely heart
As lonely as mine
Miss Lonely Heart, hear my appeal
You seem to know the way lonely hearts feel
That’s why I’m writing
And I’m asking for a reply
That’s why I’m hoping
You know someone lonely as I
I’m so blue returning to my lonely room
Ev’ry night, for nothing’s quite
As lonely as a lonely room
Miss Lonely Heart, I’m by myself
Watching the clock that stands upon the shelf
Hoping to hear the news
That you know somebody who
Watches a clock and whispers
“I’m a lonely heart, too”
