Lyrics for I Am Lonely
Oh, please understand my love, what I say I am lonely, I am lost And though I be a young man, my body does decay Like a wooden raft on a sandy bay Come bring to me a basket filled unto the brim With coloured shells Then set them down that I may choose but one I am lonely, I am lost Oh, please understand my love, what I say I am lonely, I am lost And though I be a young man, my body does decay Like a wooden raft on a sandy bay Come bring to me a basket filled unto the brim With coloured shells Then set them down that I may choose but one I am lonely, I am lost
