Who will you be loving
Now that you’ve left me
Standing here and crying alone?
Who will be the lucky one
You’ll love, instead of me?
Who will dry my tears now that you’re gone?
Who will I look up to
When I need a friend?
Who will I long for when I’m alone?
Who will comfort me
When life comes to an end?
Tell me who I’ll love now that you’re gone.
Who will give me courage
When I am feeling meek?
Who will lift me up when I am low?
Who will give me strength I need
When I am feeling weak?
If not you, then who? I’d like to know.
Who will help convince me
Life is still worthwhile?
Who will help me lift my spirits high?
Who will come to me
And try to make me smile?
Tell me who, now that you’ve said goodbye.
