The little girl standing in the rain

On the corner of 42nd street

And she's all alone on the bad side of town

Cause there was a little boy

That she loved with all her heart

But he's far away with another girl

Now she's searching for a friend

Just to hold her when she cries



In her lonely nights, lonely nights

Where no one seems to care

In her lonely nights, lonely nights

You better beware



But baby you try and you try

But it seems that it doesn't work

Cause love is a game that they play

So baby hold on to your heart

When they tell you that they care

Yeah now that you know that the winner

Takes what he wants

But she's searching for a friend

Just hold her when she cries



In her lonely nights, lonely nights

Where no one seems to care

In her lonely nights, lonely nights

You better beware



And somewhere in the night

There's a little cry

A girl who says

Hey I wanna die

There's no one here who cares

But if there's someone here who understands

Just someone here who'll try to lend a hand

And bring her home tonight, tonight



In her lonely nights...
