[Verse 1]
Child of the wilderness
Born into emptiness
Learn to be lonely
Learn to find your way in darkness

[Verse 2]
Who will be there for you?
Comfort and care for you?
Learn to be lonely
Learn to be your one companion

[Bridge]
Never dreamed out in the world
There are arms to hold you
You've always known
Your heart was on its own

[Verse 3]
So laugh in your loneliness
Child of the wilderness
Learn to be lonely
Learn how to love life that is lived alone

[Outro]
Learn to be lonely
Life can be lived, life can be loved alone
