Ask The Lonely

(album: Four Tops - 1964)

[Background:] Just ask the lonely

[Levi Stubbs:]
When you feel that need
To make it all alone,
Remember no one is thinking of,
Going alone

Just ask the lonely...
They know the hurt and pain,
Of losing a love, you can never regain

[Background:] Just ask the lonely
[Levi:] Just ask the lonely

[Levi:] The young and foolish laugh at love
[Four Tops:] Woo-hoo
[Levi:] So they run away...
[Four Tops:] Woo-hoo hoo hoo
[Levi:] Confident and sure that fate
[Four Tops:] Woo-hoo
[Levi:] Will bring another love their way

[Background:] Aaah
[Levi:] But ask the lonely....
[Background:] Aaah
How vainly a heart can yearn,
[Background:] Aaah
[Levi:] For losing a love that will never return

[Background:] Just ask the lonely
[Levi:] Just ask the lonely....
They'll tell you

[Background:] Ooooh, Woo-hoo hoo-hoo
Ooooooh

[Background:] Aaah
[Levi:] They'll tell you a story of sadness,
[Background:] Aaah
A story too hard to believe...
[Background:] Aaah
[Levi:] They'll tell you the loneliest one is me

[Background:] Just ask the lonely
[Levi:] Just ask the lonely

[Levi:] Ask me...
I'm the loneliest one you'll see

[Background:] Just ask the lonely
