Heart beat pounding so hard it keeps me wide awake at night 
I wait alone in the dark for you to make the moment right 
If I could only show you all that might be lost 
Then you would never wonder what the secret was 
And this is what I'd tell you 

The lonely heart you see tonight 
Will not give up without a fight 
And I'm never gonna let it fade away 
Never gonna let it fade away 

Oh, you can look in my eyes and see that you're the only one 
I would break down and cry if you became the lonely one 
I'd rather play the fool and try and hold a star 
Than never know if you were going to break my heart 
And I can see it shining 

The lonely heart you see tonight 
Will not give up without a fight 
And I'm never gonna let it fade away 
Never gonna let it fade away 

No matter what I say to make you understand 
It's all up to you to take the future in your hands 
So please don't keep me waiting 

The lonely heart you see tonight 
Will not give up without a fight 
And I'm never gonna let it fade away 
Never gonna let it fade away
