Chorus: 
Some guys have all the luck 
Some guys have all the pain 
Some guys get all the breaks 
Some guys do nothing but complain 

Alone in a crowd on a bus after work 
and I'm dreaming 
The guy next to me has a girl in his arms 
My arms are empty 
How does it feel when the girl next to you 
says she loves you 
It seem so unfair when there's love everywhere 
but there's none for me 

(Chorus) 

Someone to take on a walk by the lake 
Lord let it be me 
Someone who's shy 
Someone who'll cry at sad movies 
I know I would die if I ever found out 
she was fooling me 
You're just a dream and as real as it seems 
I ain't that lucky 

(Chorus) 

All of my friends have a ring on their finger 
They have someone 
Someone to care for them it ain't fair 
I got no one 
The car overheated 
I called up and pleaded 
There's help on the way 
I called you collect you didn't accept 
You had nothing to say 

(Chorus) 

But if you were here with me 
I'd feel so happy I could cry 
You are so dear to me 
I just can't let you say goodbye
