Philip Lynott - Dear Miss Lonely Hearts Lyrics

Dear Miss Lonely Hearts, I had to write this letter
To tell you how I came to meet her
She was sweet but I dated her sister
That's how I made my mistake and I can't forget her

I felt depressed till a friend of mine suggested
That I write to this address
So unless you can find a cure for my loneliness
It will persist, it will persist

Lonely boy looking for another
Lonely girl to love one another
Lonely hearts turn to each other
Lonely souls, lonely souls

Dear Lonely Boy, I doubt if my reply will bring much joy
It seems from your letter that you lied
Or strongly implied that you were satisfied
To take her sister by your side

I became distressed at your total lack of tactfulness
So at best all I can suggest
Is that you resist and you put an end
To such thoughts of silliness

Lonely boy looking for another
Lonely girl to love one another
Lonely hearts turn to each other
Lonely souls

Dear Miss Lonely Hearts, I've got problems
You're the only one I know that can solve them
I love a girl but I'm dating her sister
And if I persist in my pursuit I will kiss her

Dear Lonely Girl, I doubt if this reply will bring much joy
But you must not trust this boy
You must not lust this boy
Resist and do not kiss this boy

Lonely boy looking for another
Lonely girl to love one another
Lonely hearts turn to each other
Lonely souls, like an lonely souls

Lonely boy, I'm writing
Lonely girl looking for a lonely girl
Lonely hearts, I'm lonely
Lonely souls

Lonely boy
Lonely girl
Lonely hearts
Lonely souls

Lonely boy
Lonely girl
Lonely hearts
Lonely souls

Lonely boy
Lonely girl
Lonely hearts
Lonely souls

Lonely boy
Lonely girl
Lonely hearts
Lonely souls
