Lyrics
Two, three, four
How many times have you told me you love her?
As many times as I wanted to tell you the truth
How long have I stood here beside you?
I lived through you, you looked through me
Ooh, solitude
Still with me is only you
Ooh, solitude
I can't stay away from you
How many times have I done this to myself?
How long will it take before I see?
When will this hole in my heart be mended?
Who now is left alone but me?
Ooh, solitude
Forever me and forever you
Ooh, solitude
Only you, only true
Everyone leaves me stranded
Forgotten, abandoned, left behind
I can't stay here another night
Your secret admirer
Who could it be?
Ooh, can't you see all along it was me?
How can you be so blind as to see right through me?
Solitude
Still with me is only you
Ooh, solitude
I can't stay away from you
Ooh, solitude
Forever me and forever you
Ooh, solitude
Only you, only true
