For The Lonely Hearts With Love

FOR THE LONELY HEARTS WITH LOVE
1
You hear the others laughing
Sounds like happy families!
They've got lights in the windows
Fun-filled festivities...
2
Makes you feel more lonely
As you hunch up in the cold
And think of what might have been
And how you're growing old...
CHORUS
But don't worry! You're alive!
Love is keeping you alive
Love is what made you
And that love is still inside
CHORUS
Don't worry! You're alive!
That means you've got a best friend
Always there with you
From right now until the end
3
I know you may not feel it
You may feel full of despair
But even when you're lonely
Your best friend is there
4
Your best friend is your hunger
Your best friend is your thirst
Your best friend is your longing
While alive you could do worse
5
When you're down, you have a yearning
In despair, your need is strong
So cultivate that longing
And soon you will be strong
6
Your best friend is your life
Your life brings you everything
Lonesome heartache, wonderful highs
Without life you have nothing
7
We get love from one another
We get attached. We depend.
All the time, under our nose
Is our best friend of friends.
8
So remember your best friend
Turn within and long for love
And when you feel a glimmer
That glimmer will be enough
CHORUS
Don't worry! You're alive!
Love is keeping you alive
Love is what made you
And that love is still inside
CHORUS
Don't worry! You're alive!
That means you've got a best friend
Always there with you
From right now until the end

This was inspired by frenzie's beautiful tune #259224 and I've stolen the title, but the lyrics don't quite fit that tune.
