Once when I was little
I was happy and carefree
I used to run around laughing
Until it was time for tea
I used to play games
And smile all the time
I used to feel on top of the world
I used to feel fine
It's amazing how things change
When people let you down
And how that once happy face
Turns into a solemn frown
You search and search
For someone who cares
Anyone who understands
Anyone who dares
Loneliness, it hurts
It kills you deep inside
It makes you feel empty
It stops you in your stride
You cry yourself to sleep
Hugging your pillow tight
Wishing for someone
To hold you through the night
Once when I was little
I was happy and carefree
Now my life's full of sadness,
Pain and misery
Once when I was little
I was never on my own
But now I pray at night
''I wish I wasn't alone''
