[Verse 1]
You've lost at love before
You never closed that door
This time it's hurt you for
The last time
Only the lonely know
The pain of letting go
Before you say no more
Take my advice

[Chorus]
Just ask any single solitary heart
Why the winter night is longer
How love can fall apart
Why the world keeps getting colder
Where a teardrop starts
Just ask any single solitary heart

[Verse 2]
Don't ask the stars above
'Cause they've never been in love
They'll just remind you of
The first time
When you had confidence
In love's sweet innocence
Now you have evidence
That love can be unkind
[Chorus]
Just ask any single solitary heart
Why the winter night is longer
How love can fall apart
Why the world keeps getting colder
Where a teardrop starts
Just ask any single solitary heart
Why the winter night is longer
How love can fall apart
Why the world keeps getting colder
Where a teardrop starts
Just ask any single solitary heart
