LONELY LOVERS SYMPHONY
(Giorgio Moroder / Pete Bellotte -
- Based on "Für Elise" by Ludwig van Beethoven)

Giorgio Moroder - 1973


Lonely lovers symphony
Is a theme just for one
Lonely lovers symphony
For those hearts so alone

Desperate lovers bearing gifts
Wrapped in love, stilled with hope
Sparrows with their broken wings
So far off from their home

Those driftwood souls at sea
Searching for a harbour light
Drifting on endlessly
In the bleakest dark of night
Will they suffer more
Will they reach the shore
Will they find the door

Lonely lovers symphony
Is a song of the soul
Lonely lovers symphony
It's for those on their own

(Instrumental Break)

Lonely lovers symphony
Is a theme just for one
Lonely lovers symphony
For those hearts so alone

She left one chilly morn
Leaving just a perfumed note
Low into my heart I cried
When I read those lines she wrote
Said we should forget that we ever met
But I haven't yet

Lonely lovers symphony
Play a theme just for me
Lonely lovers symphony
Play a theme just for me
