(Hicks / Clarke / Nash)

My sadness it is growing

I'm sure it's started showing
This feeling's getting stronger
I can't hold back out much longer

It's swelling deep inside
Emotions I can't hide


[Chorus:]
Then the heartaches begin
I'm telling you

The heartaches begin

I need someone to guide me

Someone to reconcile me
To take away this pain
Before it starts again

But no one listens to me
Can't control what's set in deeply


[Chorus]

Four stone walls surround me

An empty shell's all you see
My former self's departed
A man who's broken hearted

Loneliness is what I fear
Holding on to all that's dear


[Chorus]

I'm telling you child
