‘LONELINESS’ BY YOKO ONO:
There’re many things in life i can endure,
One such thing is poverty.
But loneliness, loneliness,
Is one thing i can’t endure.
There’re many things in the world i can endure,
One such thing is humility.
But loneliness, (loneliness) loneliness, (loneliness)
Is something i can’t endure.
How could i stand loneliness, loneliness?
How are you suppose to cope with loneliness, loneliness?
How would one live with loneliness, loneliness, lo-oh-loneliness?
(oh, loneliness)
There are many things in time and space i can endure,
In fact, i can endure most anything.
But loneliness, (loneliness) loneliness, (loneliness)
Is something i can’t endure.
How could i stand loneliness, loneliness?
How are you suppose to cope with loneliness, loneliness?
How would one live with loneliness, loneliness, lo-oh-loneliness?
Lo-oh-loneliness.
(loneliness, so lonely)
(loneliness, so lonely)
(loneliness, so lonely)
(loneliness, so lonely)
(loneliness, so lonely)
Say what you will about Yoko Ono but without question some of
lyrics and songs are truely amazing and carry an undeniable weight.
I wish i could figure how to get sound clips up on this blog, this
song really should be heard.
I’ve heard the version of this by Harry Nilsson. I liked Yoko’s songs from Double Fantasy as much as John’s and “Walking on Thin Ice” is a blast. Which solo album of hers would you recommend?
Hi, i would get ‘Rising’ from 1995, also the ‘Walking on thin ice’ collection from the early 90’s is a great overview of her stuff.
