I used to be quite happy just letting my life drift by it's not until you're in love that you know you're going to die
 
Even at its happiest there is a sadness to love knowing one of you will go before the other one does
 
(chorus) Life can be lonely Sometimes you'll be lonely too You think it's only you who feels lonely like you But so many people I know are scared of being on their own You're never going to be lonely alone
 
Love is a solitary thing All that anyone can do is feel around in the dark and hope that they catch hold of you I don't want to be alone with all the thoughts in my head just watching  walk around in a self-service launderette
 
(chorus)
 
It's funny how small life can be when you're in love with somebody and nothing that  can ever take the place of love
 
(chorus)
