(Albert Hammond/Diane Warren)



Really thought that I could live without you

Really thought that I could make it on my own

Sent you away, yeah, I said I didn't need you

I let you go, I let you go, I let you go

Now I'm so lost without you

Now you're not here, and now I know



CHORUS

Lonely is the night when I'm not with you

Lonely is the night, ain't no light shining through

'Til you're in my arms, 'til you're here by my side

Lonely am I



Never thought that I, that I would need you

Never thought that I, that I'd be missing you

Gotta get you back

I just got to find a way, now

To let you know, to let you know, to let you know

That I'm so lost without you

And now this world, it just ain't right



CHORUS



I can make it through the day

I can fake it okay

I just smile and pretend

And I tell myself I'll be all right



But lonely is the light

Lonely is the night



CHORUS
