HAVE YOU EVER BEEN LONELY?
Words by GEORGE BROWN
Music by PETER DEROSE

Two of a kind everywhere I see
Lovers in the moonlight, robins in a tree.
Now that we have parted what am I to do,
But make this plea to you:

	Have you ever been lonely?
	Have you ever been blue?
	Have you ever loved someone
	Just as I love you?
	
	Can't you see I'm sorry
	For each mistake I've made?
	Can't you see I've changed, dear
	Can't you see I've paid?
	
My happiness two alone can share
Now that I have lost you, life is hard to bear.
You and I have quarreled, I'm a fool it's true;
Why can't we start anew: 

Be a little forgiving
Take me back in your heart.
How can I go on living
Now that we're apart?

If you knew what I've been through
You would know why I ask you
Have you ever been lonely?
Have you ever been blue?
Have you ever been blue?
