Through my cell window
Hear the loft boy sing
Come on, you R's
Carried on the wind

Every morning I'll be singing
Like a caged bird you might say
John, Paul, George and Ringo
Help pass the hours away
Free as a bird will I be
Another dawn creeps up on me, on me

They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest

They are the loneliest
They are the loneliest, still

Take a broken love song
Keep it by your side
