Ask The Lonely Lyrics

(Steve Perry/Jonathan Cain)

You've been picked and it's over
What's that chip on your shoulder?
Outside were solid rainbows
Inside is where the heart grows
Picking up the pieces
Something more to believe in

As you search the embers
Think what you've had, remember
Hang on, don't you let go now
You know, with every heartbeat, we love
Nothing comes easy

CHORUS
Hang on, ask the lonely
Hang on, ask the lonely
When you're feeling love's unfair
You just ask the lonely
When you're lost in deep despait
You just ask the lonely

You've got some fascinations
With your high expectations
This love is your obsession
Your heart, your past possessions
Let down your defenses
Won't be up to the one who cares

As you search the embers
Think what you've had, remember
Hang on, don't you let go now
You know, with every heartbeat, we love
Nothing comes easy

CHORUS
