Andrew Lloyd Webber
from _Aspects of Love_

Anything but lonely
Anything but empty rooms
There's so much in life to share
What's the sense when no one else is there?
Anything but lonely
Anything but only me
Quiet is in too much space
That's the thing that's hard to face
And you have a right to go
But you should also know
That I won't be alone for long
The long days with nothing said
Are not what lie ahead
I'm sorry, but I know that's wrong
Anything but lonely
Anything but passing time
Alone is what I'll never be
While there's still some life in me
And I'm still young, don't forget
It isn't over yet
So many hearts for me to thrill
If you're not here to say
How good I look each day
I'll have to find someone who will
Anything but lonely
Anything but empty rooms
There's so much in life to share
What's the sense when no one else is there?
What's the sense when no one else is there
