A Lifetime of Loneliness

Burt Bacharach, Hal David, Bacharach & David

[Verse 1]
Since you left me
I'm finding out what heartbreak is so
Help me, save me
You are the judge, and I'm your prisoner

[Chorus]
Don't sentence me into a lifetime of loneliness
Without your love
I would die
Without your love
I wouldn't even try
To carry on

[Post-Chorus]
I was born to love you
Spare me a life of loneliness and tears

[Bridge]
For I believe when love is true
One hasn't got the right
To turn to someone new
One hasn't got the right
To break somebody's heart
The way you've broken mine

[Verse 2]
Come back, I want you, need you
Bring back the love you shared with me
Without you, darlin'
I'm such a lonely human being

[Chorus]
Don't sentence me into a lifetime of loneliness
Without your love
I would die
Without your love
I wouldn't every try
To carry on

[Post-Chorus]
I was born to love you
Come to my arms and rescue, rescue me
