Another lonely day, with no one here but me, oh
More loneliness than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair, oh

I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my

Only hope can keep me together

Opening Lyrics:
Of the feelings I have for her in my heart
Every time that I come near her
I just lose my nerve as I’ve done from the start
Everything she do just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on
Of a thousand rainy days since we first met?
It’s a big enough umbrella
But it’s always me that ends up getting wet
Don’t Stand So Close To Me
Length: 4:02
Release: 1980
Opening Lyrics:
Of schoolgirl fantasy
She wants him so badly
Knows what she wants to be
This girl’s an open page
Book marking, she’s so close now
This girl is half his age
Don’t stand so close to me
Don’t stand, don’t stand so
Don’t stand so close to me
You know how bad girls get
Sometimes it’s not so easy
To be the teacher’s pet
