Sam Cooke — Lonely Island lyrics

Lyrics

I live on a lonely island in the heart of the city
I live on a lonely island, there isn’t any hope for me I tell you my heart is broken, it’s a shame and a pity
I might as well be shipwrecked in the middle of the sea
Nobody will believe me nobody seems to care
How lonely, how lonely can you be I walk around the city
my heart sends out a flare
Baby, baby, baby won’t you rescue me
(background voice, 2nd + 4th line by Sam.
I live on a lonely island in the heart of the city
