Cher - (This Is A) Song For The Lonely Lyrics






When you're standing on the edge of nowhere
There's only one way up
So your heart's got to go there
Through the darkest night
See the light shine bright
When hero's fall, in love or war
They live forever

[Chorus:]
This is a song - for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight?
For the broken hearted, battle scarred
I'll be by your side
And this is a song - for the lonely
When your dreams won't come true
Can you hear this prayer?
'Cause someone's there for you

Well, love don't need a reason
She can pick you up
Or leave you bleeding
I've seen a strong man cry
I know the reason why
We all forgive, we all forget
We just keep believing

[Chorus]

So let it find you
Wherever you may go
I'm right beside you
You don't have to look no more
You don't have to look no more, oh no

[Chorus]

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright

This is a song
A song for the lonely
And that's not you only
Through the darkest night
You're gonna see the light

Love don't need a reason
Just to leave you bleeding

Can you hear this prayer?
Someone's there

This is a song - for the lonely
Can you hear me tonight?
For the broken hearted, battle scarred
I'll be by your side
And this is a song
For the lonely

Cher (This Is A) Song For The Lonely Comments
  1. 2.... M....

    I think this song is about quantumphysic.

    She built a city on high level,a high level matrix with blond hair.

    After a t-rex came.

    She had no chance.

    It would have been FINITO.

    But.

    She was transcendental.

    So she flew away with her wings.

    She rebuilt herself.

    And with black hair she is going to a matrixpoint what she was building with blond hair.

    She is going with other people there,because she has people from the paralel wawes.

    And the Parfume song of Britney Spears is about quantumphysic too secretly,because it looks like a love song.But no.

    And Mariah Carey E=mc2

    It's logical.

    Always read and listen between the lines.

    Nothing is what it seems.

  2. J.... H....

    Amazing to see the twin towers again in peace time and the design of the twin towers so simple yet so beautiful

  3. x.... ....

    "I'm on the EDGE! ...of glory!" Oops wrong song, maybe not really wrong, Lady Gaga and her team of songwriters must have been listening to this song before writing "Edge of Glory".

  17. C.... M....

    This song has to be one of my all time top five Cher songs she has such a way with words that they make you feel like your truly not alone... that she’s there with you through it all and at the end of the song you feel so much better and that you can do anything because of her 😭🙌🏼 Cher I love you so much ❤️❤️❤️

  18. P.... b....

    I love you cher❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

  19. C.... S....

    Never forget ❤️ 🗽

  20. J.... P....

    18 years...

  21. J.... E....

    Edge of Glory's Mom!

  22. E.... H....

    I don’t know why this didn’t chart higher. She sounds so amazing and it lifts my spirits.

  23. N.... N....

    Perfect song x

  24. D.... D....

    Original Gangs of New York ending

  25. M.... ....

    Lonely since 2008

  26. J.... T....

    RW:That one part in the lyrics that she sang "I've seen a Strong man cry ,I know the reason why" I rly do know what she meant ,I've seen it happen before at a Funeral,my only regret for a husband s wife passing is that I never get the chance to know her more.

  27. J.... T....

    RW:I think I hear a Angel like her singing this song .😁

  28. a.... w....

    This song give me the feeling of eternity.... I don't know why.

  29. f.... k....

    Şarkıyı güzel de söylese daha Amerikalı bir unsur tarafından söylenmesi daha anlamlı olabilirdi. .mesela bir Fransız Amerikalı, bir İngiliz, İrlandalı Amerikalı daha çok yakışırdı. .Evet Osmanlı, Rus, İngiliz vb imparatorluklarında olduğu gibi birçok milletin bir sentezi Amerika. .yine de Anadolu'dan bir sesin oralarda doğup büyümüş Anadolu kökenli bir sanatçının söylemesi bizler için de değerli oldukça. . Cher ah bir de Elvis Presley'i taklit etmeseydin daha da orjinal olacaktın. . İstanbul'dan Newyork'a sevgiler.. Bir daha böyle bir felaketi Allah kimselere göstermesin. . Ölenlerin ruhları şâd olsun..

  30. K.... A....

    This is really the best song of hers. I remember her dedicating this song for 9/11.

  31. T.... M....

    I just love it. Sadly, I don't think many people watch this these days, and it's pretty much forgotten :(

  32. E.... J....

    I love this song so much it really helped me after my grandpa died.

    E.... J....

    Happy that you're fine now :)

  33. W.... ....

    This is a great song and remember hearing it a lot when it came out, but I was shocked to see it only hit #87 or so on the Hot 100. Underrated, which is something I don't typically say about Cher songs.

  34. E.... D....

    Who in 2019!!!

    E.... D....

    Here :D

    E.... D....

    @The Marvel Dork What!!!

  35. J.... N....

    One of my favorite songs ever ever 😀😀
    Gives me strength, and it reminds me to keep on going forward and never let anyone make me feel inferior 😄😃😄😃

  36. n.... ....

    I've always loved this video. Originally conceptualized as such or not, I always felt like it was Cher's gift to New York City following the 9/11 attacks. I remember seeing it on television with a dedication to the people of New York City and it's always held a special place in my heart for that reason.

  37. A.... P....

    Funny how listening to a Cher song all alone can make you feel so not alone 😢
    I love this lady

  38. S.... L....

    Heart broke in 2018. Saved by this song in 2019.

  46. A.... M....

    This song is the best. Cher knows just how to make her fans' hearts cry with her voice. She will always be there for her fans

  47. T.... K....

    I like the song and video Cher is a great singer

  48. l.... ....

    This song has gotten me through a lot of tough spots

  49. P.... ....

    This album, and this song in particular helped me process my grandmothers death when I was young. The first loss I had in my life. I remember taking that 4 hr drive to and from Detroit for her funeral listening to this album on my portable CD player. Crying, letting myself feel the loss of someone I loved very much and understanding it was okay to be sad. Thank you Cher!

  62. d.... ....

    I'm searching for a song of Cher, but don't recall the title.It's an old song and in the video of this song ends with Cher seen bides a large cruiseship at sundown. Does anybody has a clue what it might be? Thanks . It's not the video on the battleship.

  63. A.... ....

    This song is so underrated I swear😫 the video also seems ahead of it's time, it looks like it was made in 2010😂

  64. d.... ....

    Chers songs hold up and loved by so many over the decade in fact over half a century just amazing ,,, know i never sad this but for Cher anything You Go Girl what a great talent and icon

  65. E.... M....

    The video just makes the lyrics more powerful, always makes me smile when I listen it <3

  66. D.... G....

    Wow, I really love this song! Is this like a post 9/11 song?

  67. R.... ....

    This song brings me so much comfort. I’ve been alone for so long It hurts. But when I hear this it makes me realize that someone really is there for me. Although I’m alone I know my love and I haven’t crossed paths yet.

  68. G.... E....

  69. I.... J....

    R.I.P louder button

  70. n.... w....

    It takes a lot to do.. it really does
    but the reason for it.. it takes emotion to do it right. THAT IS A FACT :-)

  71. P.... O....

    Great performer... both gays and straights loved her!! She is so fierce and interesting!

  72. V.... J....

    Listening in 2018.. what a great song 🙌🏽

  73. J.... N....

    Still listening to this song in 2018.

  74. L.... C....

    so far ive not seen her down the street where she lived in nyc in MOONSTRUCK

  75. H.... M....

    2018 anyone?

  76. j.... d....

    everyone’s making these comments about how much it means to them, but i’m here like ‘this was in bbaj for like 30 seconds’

  77. a.... ....

    still listening to this in 2018 and I am kicking myself, Cher is coming to Australia but I was not quick enough to buy tickets! Cher is my inspiration and my world!

  78. L.... M....

    The moment when you see the twin towers standing still!

  79. V.... ....

    Damn this video is old, frickin' twin towers are still in it!

  80. A.... Q....

    I used to cry listening to this song but now I can listen to it anytime without crying!!!!

  84. i.... ....

    It does help to be reminded that we are not alone. No matter who we are. Thank you, Cher

  85. e.... q....

    Es increíble q una canción tan famosa tenga tantas pocas vistas

  86. C.... M....

    I want Cher and U2 singing toguetter someday two great voices, 😍

  87. L.... M....

    Continuity error...

    Cher herself is supposed to be the only anachronism throughout the video, yet the scene at 1:33 (late 1950's) has a "lollipop" style bus stop sign which was introduced in 1996. It's followed at 1:41 by the 1960-1963 construction of the Pan Am Building (now MetLife Building).

  88. D.... S....

    2:22 I've been finding myself singing this part a lot lately

  89. F.... F....
