It's a lonely lonely world (3)
g-bm-c
when you're shy
g-bm-g-c
You go out to the show
'cuz you're tired of staying in
but you feel like a loser
no matter what you're doin'.
You're alone at home,
or you're alone on the street,
'cuz you just don't know
how to find a friend to meet.
(chorus)
You're surrounded by the best
the world has to offer,
but you get so depressed
with no one to talk to.
In Paris for a week,
I didn't kiss anyone,
'cuz no one would talk to me.
It's so hard to have fun
in this lonely, lonely world (3)
when you're shy.
When you don't know what to do
and you think you should just quit,
someone shares food with you
and you feel such love from it
that your heart explodes with hope,
as you rise from where you sat.
When someone helps you cope,
it no longer matters that
(chorus). (2)
