Listen to the Lonely by White Heart Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1982

Hear the sad weary voices
Crying in the city night
It's the sound of the lonely
They're singing blues
People walking along
Through the steel and the neon light
They are tired of their struggling
And paying dues

Nobody seems to care, nobody
And nobody knows they are there

Listen, listen to the lonely
Listen, listen to the lonely
Why don't you listen
Listen to the lonely

They're alone in the crowd
All the noise is too loud
No one hears what they have to say
Restless boys picking fights
In the streets and the avenues, yeah
All the old folks are hiding
They're too scared to move
Now, empty faces staring
From their empty rooms
Children crying for love
That they never, never knew, now

Nobody seems to care, nobody
Nobody knows they are there

Listen, listen to the lonely
Listen, listen to the lonely
Why don't you listen
Listen to the lonely

They're alone in the crowd
All the noise is too loud
No one hears what they have to say
They are lost in the flow
They've got no place to go
Their lives just seem to slip away

Listen, listen to the lonely
Listen, listen to the lonely, ooh...
Listen, listen to the lonely
Won't you listen
Listen, listen to the lonely
