Some say that love is its own
Love is its own reward
But I can't help but believe
There's got to be more

A man needs a woman
To have and to hold
To love him in body
As well as in soul
I need your desire
Where did the fire go

I keep trying to sleep
But sleep won't be mine tonight
There's so much sorrow inside
And, baby, I don't know why

I give you your freedom
I give you my love
I give all I have
Every time that we touch
I don't know, baby
Maybe I give too much

Now I'm lonely in love
Why must I be lonely in love
I'm so lonely in love
Baby why must I be lonely
Why must I be lonely in love
I know that love carries no
She carries no guarantees
But still I can't seem to find
A reason that I can believe in

You said to be patient
And give you some room
You said you had changes
You need to work through
But the longer I wait
The farther I feel from you

Now I'm lonely in love
Why must I be lonely in love
I'm so lonely in love
Baby, why must I be lonely
Why must I be lonely in love

I'm so lonely in love
Why must I be lonely in love
(With you, darling)
I'm so lonely in love
Baby, you're my one and only
Why do you keep me lonely in love

Woo hoo, woo hoo, woo hoo...
