Lost in a strange city
Nowhere to turn
Far cry from the streets
That I came from
It can get lonely
When you're travelling hard
But you can even be lonely
Standing in your own back yard

Nobody knows the existential dread
Of the things that go on
Inside someone else's head
Whether it be trivial
Or something that Dante said
But baby
Nobody knows the meaning of loneliness

No matter how well you know someone
You can only ever guess
How can you ever really
Know somebody else
It takes more than a lifetime
Just to get to know yourself
Nobody knows the meaning of loneliness

I have to say a word about solitude
For the soul, it sometimes
They say, can be good
And I'm partial to it myself
Well, I must confess
Nobody knows the meaning of loneliness

Well there's Sartre and Camus
Nietzche and Hesse
If you dig deep enough
You gonna end up in distress
And no one escapes
Having to live under duress
And no one escapes
The meaning of loneliness

Well, they say keep it simple
When it gets to be a mess
And fame and fortune
Never brought anyone happiness
I must be lucky
Some of my friends
Think that I'm really blessed
Nobody knows the meaning of loneliness

No, no, no, no
Nobody knows the meaning of loneliness
No, no, no
Nobody knows the meaning of loneliness
Nobody knows the meaning of loneliness
