A Lonely Place - Alternative Version lyrics

I have built myself a throne

And a kingdom of my own

Queen of all that I survey

No-one standing in my way

Moving forward at a pace

That my rivals cannot face

Rising up to greater heights;

Taking flight

Chorus

It’s a lonely place to be

Flying high’s so empty

Without you by my side

All the nights alone I’ve cried.

It’s a lonely place to be

Every time I’m on my knees

Need someone to pick me up

Can’t you see I need your love!

Verse 2

I don’t really like to say

How my nightmares bring me pain

Can’t deny what they reveal;

How I feel…

Chorus

It’s a lonely place to be

Flying high’s so empty

Without you by my side

All the nights alone I’ve cried.

It’s a lonely place to be

Every time I’m on my knees

Need someone to pick me up

Can’t you see I need your love!

Middle 8

Now the hunger grows too strong

I’ve been waiting for so long…

Chorus

It’s a lonely place to be

Flying high’s so empty

Without you by my side

All the nights alone I’ve cried.

It’s a lonely place to be

Every time I’m on my knees

Need someone to pick me up

Can’t you see I need your love!
